First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested three different doses of SYL1801 eye drops in 99 people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The goal was to see if the drops are safe and can improve or maintain vision. Participants used the drops for a set period, and their vision was measured after 42 days.

- Active substance
- SYL1801 eye drops
- What this could lead to
- If successful, SYL1801 could offer a non-invasive eye drop treatment for wet AMD, potentially reducing the need for frequent injections.
