Abstract: Provided herein are embodiments relating to treating various eye disorders, including, for example, wAMD, DME, RVO, and DR.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides VEGF Traps and antagonizing antibodies that bind to IL-6, and fusion proteins and conjugates thereof, and methods of using same. The anti-IL-6 antibodies and VEGF Traps, and fusion proteins and conjugates thereof, can be used therapeutically alone or in combination with other therapeutics to treat diseases, symptoms thereof, and/or disorders related thereto.

Abstract: The present invention provides random copolymers containing zwitterions and one or more functional agents, and methods of preparing such random copolymers.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treating eye disorders by administering an anti-VEGF antibody and/or conjugate to a subject having an eye disorder. The anti-VEGF antibody of the present disclosure may be an anti-VEGF antibody conjugate that includes a polymeric moiety that extends the half-life/effectiveness/properties of the antibody when administered to a subject. A method of the present disclosure includes administering one or more doses of an anti-VEGF antibody conjugate to a subject (e.g., human or other mammalian patient) in need of treating an eye disorder, where the anti-VEGF antibody conjugate may be administered less frequently than a standard anti-VEGF therapy to treat the eye disorder.

Abstract: The invention provides a dual VEGF/PDGF antagonist comprising a VEGF antagonist linked to a PDGF antagonist. The VEGF antagonist is an antibody to a VEGF or VEGFR or is a VEGFR extracellular trap segment (i.e., a segment from the extracellular region of one or more VEGFR receptors that inhibits binding of at least one VEGFR to at least one VEGF). The PDGF antagonist is an antibody to a PDGF or PDGFR or is a PDGFR extracellular trap segment (i.e., segment from the extracellular region of one or more PDGFRs, which inhibits binding of at least one PDGFR and at least one PDGF). The dual antagonist is preferably conjugated to a half-life extending moiety, such as a HEMA-PC polymer. The dual antagonist is particularly useful for treating wet aged related macular degeneration.

Abstract: Provided herein are anti-VEGF-A antibodies and antibody conjugates thereof. Some embodiments of the antibodies can be conjugated to a moiety, such as a HEMA-PC polymer. Some embodiments of the antibody conjugates can retain or enhance antibody activity. The antibody and conjugate thereof can be particularly useful for treating diabetic retinopathy. Further provided are methods for conjugation of a polymer to a protein such as an antibody, such as IgG1.

Abstract: The present invention provides recombinant butyrylcholinesterase fusion proteins, including Fc fusion proteins and multi-armed high MW polymers containing hydrophilic groups conjugated to the fusion proteins, and methods of preparing such polymers.
