Teprotumumab, sold under the brand name Tepezza, is a medication used to treat thyroid eye disease, a rare condition where the muscles and fatty tissues behind the eye become inflamed, causing the eyes to bulge outwards. It is a human monoclonal antibody developed by Genmab and Roche for tumor treatment but was later developed by River Vision Development Corporation and Horizon Therapeutics to be used for ophthalmic uses. It binds to IGF-1R. — Wikipedia
