Where SRZN is headed

By late 2027, Surrozen looks less like a speculative Wnt-pathway story and more like a retinal disease platform with two shots on goal and a partnered third. SZN-413, the Fzd4 bi-specific licensed to Boehringer Ingelheim, should be in human studies, generating the first clinical readouts that prove (or disprove) whether Wnt agonism can do for the retina what anti-VEGF did fifteen years ago. SZN-814, the combined Fzd4 agonist plus VEGF antagonist, is the more interesting asset commercially. If preclinical translates, it offers something Regeneron's Eylea and Roche's Vabysmo cannot: actual vascular repair rather than just suppression of leaky vessels. The DME and wet AMD market is roughly $12 billion annually and growing as the diabetic population swells. A drug that reduces injection burden from every 4-8 weeks to every 12-16 weeks, while also addressing the underlying vascular dysfunction, takes meaningful share.
