Definitions
- the present invention relates to vascular permeability factor (VPF) [also referred to as vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF), and collectively referred to as “VEGF / VPF” in the present specification].
- VPF vascular permeability factor
- VEGF vascular endothelial cell growth factor
- the present invention relates to an inhibitor, particularly to an agent that suppresses vascularization and corneal opacity and / or edema during corneal transplantation.
- steroid and non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs are used to prevent rejection during corneal transplantation.
- both steroid and non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs have significant problems.
- steroid eye drops have a strong anti-inflammatory effect, but have serious side effects.
- These side effects include exacerbation of infections, induction of infections, delayed wound healing, cataracts, glaucoma, and suppression of adrenal gland system function. When medication is stopped, rebound phenomena may cause exacerbation of inflammation.
- Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs do not have as severe side effects as steroids, but have the disadvantage of being less effective.

Abstract
L'invention se rapporte à des inhibiteurs utiles de néovascularisation cornéenne qui sont capables non seulement d'inhiber la néovascularisation associée à une kératite ou à une greffe cornéenne mais également d'empêcher l'opacification de la cornée ou la formation d'oedème qui les accompagne. Ces inhibiteurs contiennent en tant qu'ingrédient actif des antagonistes de VEGF/VPF. Ces antagonistes de VEGF/VPF sont de préférence constitués d'un anticorps dirigé contre VEGF/VPF. Ces inhibiteurs peuvent également servir d'inhibiteurs d'opacification de la cornée ou de formation d'oedème et ils favorisent la prise des greffes.
