摘要
In December 2004, pegaptanib sodium (Macugen; Eyetech/Pfizer), which targets vascular endothelial growth factor, was approved by the US FDA for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration. As well as being the first anti-angiogenic agent to be approved for this common eye disorder, it is also the first approved therapeutic based on an RNA structure known as an aptamer.
