OXERVATE (cenegermin-bkbj) is neurons, which acts through specific high-affinity (i. Approved for neurotrophic keratitis. First approved in 2018.
OXERVATE (cenegermin-bkbj) is a recombinant human nerve growth factor (NGF) ophthalmic solution approved by the FDA in August 2018 for the treatment of neurotrophic keratitis. It works by binding to high-affinity (TrkA) and low-affinity (p75NTR) nerve growth factor receptors in the anterior segment of the eye to support corneal innervation and integrity. This represents the first and only FDA-approved NGF therapy for corneal nerve regeneration, filling a significant unmet need in a rare orphan indication with limited treatment options.

OXERVATE creates specialized pharmaceutical roles including ophthalmology-focused brand managers, medical science liaisons (MSLs) with corneal disease expertise, and rare disease specialists for healthcare provider engagement. Success in this role requires deep knowledge of neurotrophic keratitis pathophysiology, niche specialist relationships with corneal and neuro-ophthalmology practitioners, and understanding of orphan drug reimbursement complexities. Currently, zero open positions are linked to this product, though career opportunities exist in commercial, medical, and market access functions within specialized ophthalmology portfolios.
