Reducing Treatment Burden in AMD

Abstract

VEGF-A antagonists have revolutionized wet AMD treatment. Several challenges remain including high treatment burden requiring repeated intraocular injections for persistent disease. Brolucizumab directly inhibits VEGF-A function, providing visual outcomes comparable to aflibercept (an FDA-approved VEGF-A antagonist). Anatomic retinal outcomes including retinal fluid, a marker of disease activity, favored brolucizumab. To view this Bench to Bedisde, open or download the PDF.
