AboutADX-2191
ADX-2191, an intravitreal formulation of methotrexate, has been granted orphan drug designation for the prevention of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). The observed clinical activity ofADX-2191 in patients with PVR is believed to be the result of down-regulation of aberrant retinal cell proliferation and activity, thereby leading to reduced retinal scarring that is characteristic of PVR. Aldeyra retains an exclusive license to certain patents related to the use ofADX-2191 for the prevention of PVR.
