Efficacy of an Indian Bevacizumab BIOSimilar (BEVATAS) for Type 1 and Aggressive Posterior Retinopathy of Prematurity (BIOS-ROP Study).

The BIOS-ROP study demonstrates that intravitreal bevacizumab biosimilar monotherapy offers significant benefit for type 1 ROP, but not APROP. Low-cost biosimilars can help sustain healthcare systems in lower-middle income countries (LMICs) with escalating healthcare expenditures. They can also improve healthcare equity by making vision-saving therapies like bevacizumab more affordable and accessible.
