In MAGNOLIA, 50% of XIPERE-treated patients maintained efficacy through 36 additional weeks after their second suprachoroidal injection of XIPERE, without requiring additional treatment. How does this compare to other treatments?
The mean time to rescue therapy in a 28 patients subset who were treated with XIPERE at baseline and week 12 of patients was over 9 months from their second injection in the PEACHTREE study. How does this dosing interval and stability compare to other choices you might have?
