The article also talks about neuroprotective drugs. These drugs are meant to prevent the dying of retinal nerve cells. I don't believe Insite has anything like this, but I could be wrong. That is probably what Allergan is working on. I was thinking this may impact ISV-205 but that may not be the case. The article talks about high IOP not always being a predictor of Glaucoma, but I think that high IOP is still a high percentage indicator of Glaucoma. I would think ISV-205, which will hopefully prevent high IOP in many cases, would still be needed.
