MACULA2 focuses on creating a genetic test for identifying patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of blindness. This test aims to improve patient stratification, enabling more effective treatment options and enhancing drug development for AMD therapies.
In MACULA2 we aim to develop a genetic diagnostic test for complement activation that will allow proper stratification of patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). AMD is an inflammatory disease, the #1 cause of blindness in the world, with 196 million patients estimated for 2020.
Such a test does not currently exist, strongly hampering drug development and patient treatment.
Poor patient stratification contributes to high failure rates in trials for AMD.
