Abstract
The present relates to VEGF traps and VEGF mini-traps that include VEGF receptor Ig-like domains, fused to a multimerizing component, which bind to VEGF and block its interaction with the VEGF receptor. Such molecules are useful for treating angiogenic eye disorders (e.g., age-related macular degeneration), cancer and for other undesired angiogenesis.
