Mechanism of action
KH902 functions as a VEGF trap, binding and neutralizing VEGF-A and VEGF-B to prevent their interaction with VEGF receptors on endothelial cells. By blocking VEGF signaling, it reduces pathological neovascularization and vascular leakage associated with retinal diseases. The intravitreal injection route delivers the drug directly to the posterior segment of the eye for local therapeutic effect.
