Aflibercept
A protein that works as a trap to capture vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a substance that stimulates abnormal blood vessel growth in conditions like wet macular degeneration and certain cancers. By blocking VEGF, it helps prevent the leaky, abnormal vessels that can damage vision or feed tumor growth.
