Summary:To provide an antibody which binds to VEGF and ANG2 for treatment of ophthalmologic diseases.SOLUTION: A bispecific antibody which binds to human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and to human angiopoietin-2 (ANG-2) is for use in treatment of an ocular vascular disease or a patient suffering from an ocular vascular disease. The bispecific antibody is administered (is to be administered) intravitreally every 8 weeks or less frequently. The bispecific antibody which binds to VEGF and to human ANG-2 may be a VEGF antagonist/inhibitor and an ANG2 antagonist/inhibitor, or inhibit binding of VEGF to its receptor VEGFR and inhibit binding of ANG2 to its receptor TIE2.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】眼科疾患の処置のための、VEGFとANG2に結合する抗体を提供。【解決手段】眼血管疾患又は眼血管疾患を患っている患者の処置に使用するための、ヒト血管内皮増殖因子(VEGF)とヒトアンジオポエチン-2(ANG-2)とに結合する二重特異的抗体であって、該二重特異的抗体は、8週間毎又はより少ない頻度で硝子体内に投与される(投与される予定である)、二重特異的抗体である。前記VEGFとヒトANG-2とに結合する二重特異的抗体は、VEGFアンタゴニスト/阻害剤及びANG2アンタゴニスト/阻害剤であるか、又は、VEGFのその受容体VEGFRへの結合を阻害しかつANG2のその受容体TIE2への結合を阻害する、二重特異的抗体であってよい。【選択図】図1
