The present invention provides compositions and methods of treating
neovascular diseases, such as a retinal neovascular diseases and tumors,
by administering to a patient suffering from a neovascular disease or
tumor a vascular development inhibiting amount of a combination of the
angiogenesis suppressing drugs comprising an angiostatic fragment of
tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase (TrpRS) and at least one compound selected
from the group consisting of a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)
signaling inhibitor and an integrin signaling inhibitor. Compositions for
use in the methods include an admixture of an angiostatic fragment of
tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase (TrpRS) and at least one of a vascular
endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling inhibitor and an integrin
signaling inhibitor, together with a pharmaceutically acceptable
excipient.
