Abstract:
The invention provides methods and compositions for treating various degenerative diseases (e.g., AMD) with a factor D inhibitor (e.g., anti-factor D antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof). Also provided are methods of selecting or identifying patients for treatment with a factor D inhibitor. Methods include the use of prognostic and/or predictive biomarkers.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods for identifying individuals with intermediate age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who possess a greater risk of progression to advanced AMD, using a polygenic score calculated based on the results of genome-wide gene association studies, using thousands of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
