Foscarnet calcium microcrystals as the intravitreal drug depot.

Yuling Sun1, Yong Tao, Qingchen Cao, Yanbin Huang.   

Abstract

Foscarnet sodium is an antiviral drug for the treatment of CMV retinitis, currently in the form of twice-weekly intravitreal injection. Here we developed foscarnet calcium microcrystals as the drug depot, and using the rabbit model we demonstrated that the injected microcrystals maintained a therapeutically relevant drug concentration in the vitreous for more than 3 months.
