A study sponsored by Qilu Pharmaceutical, published in Ophthalmology and Therapy reports that, in a Chinese, randomised, double-blind, phase III trial, Qilu’s QL1207 was equivalent to Regeneron’s Eylea® for neovascular age-related macular degeneration, with similar safety profiles.
According to the study, QL1207 is the first aflibercept biosimilar developed in China.
