STA-21-related compounds, for example CLT-005, are shown to prevent dimerization of STAT3, thereby inhibiting STAT3 activity. Inhibition of STAT3 activity is shown to reduce intraocular inflammation and neovascularization, symptoms of eye-related diseases such as age-related macular degeneration. Inhibition of STAT3 prevents STAT3 from transcriptionally activating downstream gene targets that are known to be associated with retinal inflammation and neovascularization and such disorders as age-related macular degeneration.
