    [VIRTUAL] Anti-VEGF drugs clearly decrease phagocytic ability of retinal microglia. () -  May 13, 2021 - Abstract #ARVO2021ARVO_1116;    
    In contrast, their ability to phagocytose is reduced dramatically. It may be speculated that reduced microglial phagocytosis allows enhanced accumulation of cellular debris, which in turn may promote progression of dry AMD.

    [VIRTUAL] The role of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in detecting and monitoring inflammatory choroidal neovascular membranes () -  May 13, 2021 - Abstract #ARVO2021ARVO_712;    
    Treatment for i-CNVM included intravitreal bevacizumab (n=1), intravitreal ranibizumab (n=2), intravitreal aflibercept (n=8), subtenon triamcinolone acetonide (n=2) and intravitreal dexamethasone implant (n=2)... Our results show that OCT-A is an effective modality for detecting i-CNVM and that visible regression of the CNVM is apparent in the majority of cases following treatment.

    [VIRTUAL] Predictors of visual recovery after post-injection endophthalmitis () -  May 13, 2021 - Abstract #ARVO2021ARVO_663;    
    Although frequently done at recurrent intervals, cumulative injections are not associated with worse visual outcomes following endophthalmitis. Factors that were associated with poor visual prognosis included the culture positivity and the need for a vitrectomy in the post infection period.

    [VIRTUAL] Subretinal Hyperreflective Material on Structural OCT in nAMD () -  May 13, 2021 - Abstract #ARVO2021ARVO_654;    
    These were nAMD consecutive cases and we followed them for up to five years to investigate the incidence of subretinal hyperreflective material during nAMD treatment with ranibizumab and bevacizumab. The appearance of subretinal hyperreflective material on OCT during treatment with anti-vegf for nAMD is possible and suggests worse visual prognosis when compared to patients with no hyperreflective material

    Review, Journal:  Mechanisms of sterile inflammation after intravitreal injection of antiangiogenic drugs: a narrative review. (Pubmed Central) -  May 9, 2021   
    Avoiding temperature fluctuation, mechanical shock, agitation during transport and handling of syringes/drugs, and the use of SO-free syringes may help minimize intraocular inflammation. While a definitive mechanism has not yet been established, current knowledge of the clinical presentation and vitreous histopathology of brolucizumab-retinal vasculitis favors an auto-immune type IV hypersensitivity reaction.

    Clinical, Retrospective data, Journal:  Visual Outcomes after Anti-VEGF Therapy for Exudative Age-Related Macular Degeneration in a Real-Life Setting. (Pubmed Central) -  May 7, 2021   
    While a definitive mechanism has not yet been established, current knowledge of the clinical presentation and vitreous histopathology of brolucizumab-retinal vasculitis favors an auto-immune type IV hypersensitivity reaction. Anti-VEGF therapy carried out in a real-life setting shows good VA outcomes with a favorable safety profile.

    Preclinical, Journal:  The Role of Intravitreal Anti-VEGF Agents in Rabbit Eye Model of Open-Globe Injury. (Pubmed Central) -  May 7, 2021   
    Both Ranibizumab and Conbercept inhibited epiretinal scar formation at the wound site, with Conbercept showing the greatest effect (maximal length of scar (L), L = 503 ± 82.44 μm, L = 355 ± 43.66 μm, and L = 250.33 ± 36.02 μm). Anti-VEGF treatments after OGI significantly attenuated the upregulation of growth factors and cytokines in the vitreous and prevented intravitreal proliferation and epiretinal scar formation and thus may protect against the development of posttraumatic complications such as proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR).

    However, the PDC-n-AMD patients are expected to benefit more than the OCC-n-AMD patients in terms of VA gains. In our series, the genotype GG of C3 rs2230199 was more significantly associated with the phenotype of large vascularized pigment epithelial detachment poorly responding to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy than in global AMD series.

    Journal:  Non-invasive molecular tracking method that measures ocular drug distribution in non-human primates. (Pubmed Central) -  May 5, 2021   
    We further investigate a long acting anti-VEGF antibody, which remains as an agglomerate with some material leaking out until the end of the study at Day 35. Overall, we were able to visualize and measure differences in the in vivo behavior between short and long-acting antibodies, demonstrating the power of the technology for ocular pharmacokinetics.

    [VIRTUAL] Generation of a Lentiviral Based Gene Therapy Vector for the Treatment of Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (nAMD) () -  Apr 30, 2021 - Abstract #ASGCT2021ASGCT_540;    
    P1
    Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a pro-angiogenic factor that is known to have a key role in the development of nAMD and anti-VEGF treatments such as Aflibercept, Ranibizumab and Bevacizumab are the current standard of care for this disease...As such, we have developed an EIAV (OXB-203E) and HIV (OXB-203H) lentiviral vector encoding Aflibercept for the treatment of nAMD.Clinical data from RetinoStat®/OXB-201, a predecessor EIAV (equine infectious anaemia virus) gene therapy vector for the treatment of nAMD, expressing endostatin and angiostatin, demonstrated that following a single subretinal injection of this vector in patients, there was stable, long term expression of the transgenes in the aqueous humour out to 6 years, providing proof-of-principle for this type of single-injection gene therapy approach (NCT01301443 (Phase I GEM study) and NCT01678872 (follow-up study)).OXB-203 is the successor to our nAMD programme...In a preclinical study using a rat choroidal neovascularization (CNV) model for nAMD, a single subretinal administration of OXB-203E demonstrated expression of Aflibercept in the vitreous humour and reduction of laser-induced CNV lesion areas comparable to a bolus of recombinant Aflibercept delivered intravitreally. An in vivo head to head comparative study of OXB-203 and an AAV8-Aflibercept vector showed that Aflibercept derived from OXB-203 lentiviral vectors was expressed at significantly higher levels than from the AAV8-Aflibercept in the rat vitreous humour, retina and choroid (with retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)), four weeks following a single subretinal delivery of the viral vectors.These studies demonstrate the comparable efficacy of the OXB-203 lentiviral vector to that of recombinant Aflibercept and the superiority of OXB-203 in terms of the level of Aflibercept expression over an AAV8-based vector, thereby supporting the therapeutic potential of OXB-203 for the management of nAMD.

    Journal:  Evaluation of Port Delivery System with ranibizumab for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration. (Pubmed Central) -  Apr 30, 2021   
    The Port Delivery System with ranibizumab offers a long-term solution that involves implantation of a device into the pars plana and provides continuous release of anti-VEGF medication into the vitreous, thus requiring fewer office visits. The Port Delivery System has demonstrated comparable visual and anatomic outcomes to monthly injections and shows promise in alleviating the patient burden in the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration, making possible better long-term real-world visual outcomes.
