On 5 March 2024, the Times of India reported that Roche launched Vabysmo® (faricimab) in India for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and diabetic macular edema (DME).    

Vabysmo® was first approved in the US by the FDA in January 2022 and is now available in multiple countries, including Europe, Canada and Australia.  In October 2023, Roche received a new indication approval by FDA for the use of Vabysmo® to treat macular oedema following retinal vein occlusion.  Since its first launch date, Vabysmo ® has achieved global sales of US$2.7 billion.
