Susvimo® (ranibizumab injection) has become the first FDA-approved continuous delivery system for diabetic retinopathy (DR), reducing treatment frequency to once every nine months.1 The approval is based on the positive results of the phase III Pavilion study, showing significant improvement in disease severity.
On 28 May 2024, enrolment in phase III clinical trials for sozinibercept in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) was completed.1 These trials include two large multicentre, double-masked, randomized controlled trials (RCTs): COAST (OPT-302 with aflibercept in neovascular age-related macular degeneration; ClinicalTrials.gov ...
The FDA has approved Susvimo® (ranibizumab injection) 100 mg/mL for the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME). Susvimo is the first and only FDA-approved treatment shown to maintain vision in people with DME while requiring fewer treatments than standard-of-care eye injections.
Outlook Therapeutics has announced the 12-week efficacy and safety results from the NORSE EIGHT clinical trial evaluating ONS-5010 (bevacizumab-vikg) for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD).1 The findings were presented at the Hawaiian Eye and Retina 2025 Meeting.
The uvea is a vascular stratum that includes the iris, ciliary body and choroid. Uveitis is defined as inflammation of a part of the uvea or its entirety, but it is also used to describe inflammatory processes of any part ...
The EURETINA 2024 Congress, held in Barcelona from September 19-22, brought together leading experts in ophthalmology to share the latest research and innovative treatments for retinal diseases. Among the highlights were several late-breaking abstracts that showcased promising advances in therapeutics for conditions such as retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), diabetic retinopathy (DR) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). These studies not only demonstrated the efficacy and safety of novel treatment options but also addressed critical unmet needs in reducing patient burden and improving long-term outcomes.
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and diabetic macular oedema (DME) are two leading causes of visual impairment and blindness in the USA.1,2 Faricimab is the first bispecific antibody approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in ophthalmology and was ...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive eye condition that affects millions of people worldwide and poses a significant threat to vision in individuals over the age of 50.1Â Of the two types of AMD, wet AMD, which is characterized by ...
Diabetic macular edema is characterised by exudative fluid accumulation in the macula and is the most common form of sight-threatening retinopathy in people with diabetes affecting one in 15 people with diabetes. Intraocular pharmacotherapy with anti-VEGF agents is the standard of ...
The CANDELA trial (NCT04126317) was a phase II, randomized, single-masked, open-label, clinical trial that assessed the safety and efficacy of aflibercept 8 mg versus the standard dose of 2 mg in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). It was a pleasure ...
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is an advanced form of macular degeneration that historically has accounted for the majority of vision loss related to AMD. Current treatment consists of injecting inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) into the vitreous ...
With the introduction of monoclonal antibody inhibitors for all isoforms of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A, which were first presented in September 2005 with off-label use of bevacizumab, significant anatomical and visual improvements for neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) became ...
It was a pleasure to catch up with Dr Carl Regillo (Wills Eye Hospital, Philadelphia, PA, USA) about new and emerging neovascular age-related macular degeneration treatments, including the new anti-vascular endothelial growth factor which appear to lead to better outcomes ...
Welcome to the winter edition of touchREVIEWS in Ophthalmology, which features relevant topics from across the specialty. This edition contains a wide range of articles evaluating current practice and research, as well as innovations that directly affect ophthalmologists. The surgical ...
Biologics have redefined the outcomes of retinal pathologies by targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway. Anti-VEGF therapy has prevented millions of people from going blind due to retinal vascular pathologies.1 Apart from preventing morbidity, it has a widespread ...
The subspecialty of the retina has been transformed by anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) medications over the last two decades.1 These include bevacizumab (Avastin®, Genetech, San Francisco, CA, USA), ranibizumab (Lucentis®, Genentech, San Francisco, CA, USA), aflibercept (Eylea®, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, ...
The Archway study (NCT03677934) was a phase 3, randomized, active treatment–controlled trial for the treatment of nAMD, conducted at 77 study locations in the United States. We caught up with Prof. Usha Chakravarthy (Queen's University of Belfast, Belfast, Northern Ireland) to ...
