Are You Ready for the Future? Treating Geographic Atrophy with Complement Modulation-Based Therapies
This activity is supported by an unrestricted educational grant from Iveric Bio
Faculty:
Peter K. Kaiser, USA; Baruch D. Kuppermann, USA; Anat Loewenstein, Israel
Description:
Drs. Kaiser, Kuppermann, and Loewenstein will discuss potential geographic atrophy (GA) therapies as well as risk factors that drive this
disease, imaging modalities that are best suited for GA evaluation, and the type of lesions patterns that place patients at high risk for progression.
Accreditation Statement: Pending UEMS-EACCME® Live Educational Events (LEE) application.
