Cenegermin
A recombinant form of human nerve growth factor administered as eye drops to treat neurotrophic keratitis, a rare corneal disease caused by impaired nerve supply to the eye. By supporting corneal nerve regeneration and epithelial healing, it addresses the underlying pathology rather than just symptoms. It represents the first topical treatment specifically targeting the neurological cause of this condition.
