US Ophthalmologists Report Increasing Trial of Roche/Genentech's Vabysmo in Diabetic Macular Edema, Though Regeneron's Eylea Maintains Its Strong Positioning, According to Spherix Global Insights

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, October 12, 2022

EXTON, Pa., Oct. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Now on the market for over nine months, Roche/Genentech's Vabysmo (faricimab-svoa) has had success in expanding the breadth of users. However, depth of use is limited and has translated to minimal market share to date in diabetic macular edema (DME). The latest quarterly report included in Spherix's RealTime Dynamix™ service offered in DME captured feedback from 101 US ophthalmologists on their use and perceptions of both in-line and pipeline assets in this rapidly changing market.

Key Points: 
  • However, depth of use is limited and has translated to minimal market share to date in diabetic macular edema (DME).
  • Unsurprisingly, Eylea continues to dominate the space and has even shown a slight increase in brand share over the year, despite the added pressure from Vabysmo.
  • On the other hand, Novartis' latest launch for Beovu in DME is also off to a slow start.
  • AbbVie/Allergan's Ozurdex and Alimera Science's Iluvien, already reserved for later-line patients, have continued to lose ground in the DME market.
