The present disclosure relates to chimeric molecules which are fusion proteins comprising two components: an Ang-2 binding peptide linked to either a VEGF antibody or a VEGF receptor-Fc fusion protein. The Ang2 peptide, VEGF antibody, and VEGF receptor-Fc fusion proteins are each defined below with reference to percent identity to a reference sequence. The chimeric molecule is a fusion protein, dual antagonist of Ang2 and VEGF for treatment of cancers, proliferative retinopathies, neovascular glaucoma, macular edema, AMD, and rheumatoid arthritis. |
