    [VIRTUAL] PO423: Visual Impact of Fluctuations in CST in nAMD Patients Treated with Anti-VEGF in VIEW () -  Nov 11, 2020 - Abstract #AAO2020AAO_353;    
    Methods Standard deviation of each eye's CST from baseline through Week 52 was calculated as a measure of individual CST variability and evaluated as quartiles (Q1: ≤27.6 μm, n = 448; Q2: 27.6–42.5 μm, n = 448; Q3: 42.5–65.3 μm, n = 448; Q4: >65.3 μm, n = 448) for eyes that received ranibizumab 0.5 mg every 4 weeks (Rq4) or intravitreal aflibercept injection 2 mg every 4 weeks (2q4) or every 8 weeks (after three monthly doses; 2q8) through Week 52 in VIEW...Conclusion The highest CST fluctuation was associated with lower BCVA gain. BCVA gain with each treatment was similar within each quartile of CST fluctuation.

    [VIRTUAL] PO388: Faricimab: Evidence for Differentiation With Dual Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2)/VEGF-A Inhibition in DME and nAMD () -  Nov 11, 2020 - Abstract #AAO2020AAO_344;    
    P2
    In STAIRWAY, BCVA and macular anatomy improvements with faricimab dosed every 16 and 12 weeks were comparable to those with monthly ranibizumab. Conclusion Phase 2 and preclinical data support improved and sustained efficacy of faricimab through dual Ang-2/VEGF inhibition, likely secondary to vascular stabilization effects of simultaneous Ang-2/VEGF-A neutralization.

    Only ranibizumab and aflibercept outcome data were available...UK real-world outcomes have improved over the last decade with improved service delivery and the adoption of more proactive treatment regimens but are still not always as impressive as registration clinical trial results. Access to longer-acting anti-VEGF therapies would reduce the treatment burden for patients, carers, and the healthcare system, potentially making replication of clinical trial results possible in the NHS.

    Biomarker, Journal:  Dynamic changes in choroidal conditions during anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 31, 2020   
    One hundred treatment-naïve eyes of 100 patients with PCV treated for 24 months at Keio University Hospital with intravitreal ranibizumab or aflibercept monotherapy (three injections and PRN thereafter) were retrospectively analyzed...Mean CVD and CCT at remission were greater in patients with initial pachyvessels and pachychoroid than in those without; the basal levels of CVD and CCT most likely represent VEGF-unrelated conditions. CVD increase preceded CCT increase and recurrent exudative changes, suggesting that the VEGF-related CVD increase may regulate CCT and exudative change; and that CVD may be a biomarker of exudative change.

    Journal:  Intravitreal anti-VEGF drug delivery systems for age-related macular degeneration. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 27, 2020   
    Most of the studies have focused on the extended in vitro release behaviour of the developed DDSs, but data as antibody bioactivity, biocompatibility or in vivo stability is sometimes scarce. Moreover, as DDS development relies on in vivo pharmacokinetic analyses to evaluate the extended drug release, all the information regarding anti-VEGF intravitreal pharmacokinetics in different animal species have been compiled.

    Clinical, Journal:  Predictor of Early Remission of Diabetic Macular Edema under As-Needed Intravitreal Ranibizumab. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 25, 2020   
    Multivariate analysis revealed that smaller CSF thickness at baseline predicted the early remission of DME under PRN IVR injections (odds ratio, 0.989; 95% confidence interval, 0.982-0.997; P = 0.008). These data elucidate the clinical characteristics of early remission of DME under PRN IVR injections and suggest that smaller CSF thickness at baseline is a novel predictor of early remission under PRN IVR injections for DME.

    These data elucidate the clinical characteristics of early remission of DME under PRN IVR injections and suggest that smaller CSF thickness at baseline is a novel predictor of early remission under PRN IVR injections for DME. These results demonstrate that adventitial fibroblast-derived VEGF plays a significant role in the increase of vasa vasorum count which is involved in macrophage recruitment and neointima formation.

    Review, Journal:  Nephrotoxicity induced by intravitreal vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors: emerging evidence. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 22, 2020   
    We provide clinical suggestions for clinicians to both better manage patients receiving anti-VEGF agents intravitreally and detect any putative systemic renal effects of these agents. While acknowledging the risks of aberrant retinal angiogenesis, it is important for clinicians to be aware of the potential for adverse renal risks with use of these agents.

    Biomarker, Journal:  Circulating endothelial and progenitor cells in age-related macular degeneration. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 22, 2020   
    Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatment with intravitreal ranibizumab was associated with a significant reduction of endothelial progenitor cell levels, with no significant influence on circulating progenitor cells and circulating endothelial cells. We reported higher levels of circulating endothelial cells in age-related macular degeneration patients in comparison with the control group, thereby supporting the hypothesis of an involvement of endothelial dysregulation in the age-related macular degeneration and a reduction of the endothelial progenitor cell level in neovascular age-related macular degeneration patients after three intravitreal injections of ranibizumab.

    Change from baseline in CNV component area across the treatment arms was –4.3, –5.6, and –4.8 mm2, respectively; change from baseline in neovascular leakage area was –4.6, –5.6, and –5.3 mm2. Vision and macular anatomy were maintained with approximately half as many injections on faricimab Q16W flex or Q12W fixed versus ranibizumab Q4W dosing regimen. Conclusion Preclinical evidence supports the visual and anatomic improvements observed in the phase 2 STAIRWAY trial indicating that faricimab, driven by its Ang-2 inhibition properties, results in sustained vascular stability, reduced leakage and anti-angiogenic effects, leading to sustained efficacy and durability of treatment effect beyond anti-VEGF monotherapy.
