    Journal:  Short-Term Efficacy in Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy Patients Treated With Intravitreal Aflibercept or Conbercept. (Pubmed Central) -  Mar 8, 2022   
    A relatively high proportion of polyp regression was observed in the IVA group (63%) compared with the IVC group (55%) via OCTA. Visual and anatomic outcomes were significantly improved in both IVA and IVC groups, but the results suggest a potentially superior short-term response in the IVA group.

    Biomarker, Clinical, Journal:  Proteomic changes of aqueous humor in proliferative diabetic retinopathy patients treated with different intravitreal anti-VEGF agents. (Pubmed Central) -  Mar 5, 2022   
    In summary, we discovered that ALDH3A1 was a previously unreported protein that was related to angiogenesis and was differentially expressed in the three anti-VEGF treatment groups, suggesting that it may be a new target for PDR therapy. The described proteomic changes in the AH of PDR patients treated with different anti-VEGF agents provide novel targets which may explain the heterogeneity of anti-VEGF treatment responses in these patients, providing a robust foundation for future studies of PDR pathogenesis.

    Journal:  Effect of long-term anti-VEGF treatment on viability and function of RPE cells. (Pubmed Central) -  Mar 3, 2022   
    As only 22% of the eyes underwent PDT treatment, the benefit of combined treatment for PCV in Caucasian patients could not be definitively elucidated from this study. Long term treatment with anti VEGF may affect viability of RPE cells, and treatment with bevacizumab may have effects on RPE function in long term treatment.

    Further clinical trials are necessary to define the role of agents targeting Ang/Tie in future clinical practice. Among the investigational drugs targeting the Ang/Tie pathway, faricimab has shown promising results in phase II/III trials and in the near future may represent a viable treatment option for the management of exudative macular diseases.

    Clinical, Observational data, Journal:  Intravitreal anti-VEGF use in France: a cross-sectional and longitudinal Nationwide observational study. (Pubmed Central) -  Mar 1, 2022   
    Less frequent dispensations and surveillance examinations were observed than in monthly schemes applied in registration trials for IVT anti-VEGF. These results may indicate a lack of systematic monitoring associated with fewer injections and/or clinicians' preference for more flexible and personalized injection schemes than those originally recommended.

    The initial VA influenced the final VA improvements at 24 months, while age and initial CRT were prognostic predictors of 24-month CRT reduction. Fixed q8 ranibizumab, q8 bevacizumab, q12 aflibercept, or q10 brolucizumab regimens may produce adequate intraocular VEGF inhibition.

    Clinical, Journal:  Bevacizumab and aflibercept in second-line metastatic colorectal cancer: 12 years of experience. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 26, 2022   
    EMB does not reduce the number of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections, either within or outside of a trial setting, and is associated with worse BCVA than anti-VEGF monotherapy. Although no statistically significant differences have been found in TT or PFS, it would be more advisable to use BFIR scheme due to its better results in OS and toxicity profile.

    Journal:  One-year outcomes of the treat-and-extend regimen using aflibercept for the treatment of diabetic macular edema. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 26, 2022   
    Although no statistically significant differences have been found in TT or PFS, it would be more advisable to use BFIR scheme due to its better results in OS and toxicity profile. This straightforward and practical TAE regimen using intravitreal aflibercept injections resulted in favorable clinical outcomes with minimal treatment burden for DME at Week 52.

    Preclinical, Journal:  VEGF-Trap Modulates Retinal Inflammation in the Murine Oxygen-Induced Retinopathy (OIR) Model. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 26, 2022   
    VEGF-Trap (Aflibercept, AFL), a recombinant decoy receptor recognizing ligands of both VEGFR-1 and -2, was recently reported to be highly efficient in improving visual acuity and preserving retinal anatomy in individuals affected by diabetic macular edema...We show that AFL administration during the hypoxic period of OIR leads to an increased number of ramified Iba1 microglial cells/macrophages while subsequently limiting the accumulation of these cells in particular retinal layers. Our results suggest that, beyond its well-documented beneficial effects on microvascular regeneration, AFL might exert important modulatory effects on post-ischemic retinal inflammation.

    Pricing, Journal:  Competition law and pricing among biologic drugs: the case of VEGF therapy for retinal diseases. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 26, 2022   
    We propose mechanisms for anticipating and facilitating the market introduction of biosimilars, as well as changes to the pricing model in Medicare that can promote use of cost-effective therapies. Reforms such as empowering Medicare to negotiate drug prices may help ensure that introduction of new biologics and biosimilars for AMD will lower spending and increase patient access.

    Journal:  The sterility, stability and efficacy of repackaged ziv-aflibercept for intravitreal administration. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 24, 2022   
    However, the concentration of ziv-aflibercept decreased less than the minimum expected concentration of 8 ng/mL after 60 days at 4 °C and after 30 days at 25.8 °C. The repackaged anti-VEGF drug ziv-aflibercept does not lose stability or efficacy and remains uncontaminated if prepared under sterile conditions and stored at 4 °C for up to 60 days or stored at 25.8 °C for up to 30 days.

    Review, Journal:  Update on Management of Non-proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy without Diabetic Macular Edema; Is There a Paradigm Shift? (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 24, 2022   
    In addition, recent randomized trials (PANORAMA and Protocol W) have revealed that early intervention with intravitreal aflibercept in eyes with moderately severe to severe NPDR is associated with significant improvement in DRSS and reduced vision-threatening complications of DR...The cost-benefit ratio is also a challenge. Herein, we look at different aspects of early anti-VEGF application and discuss its pros and cons in the process of treating NPDR.

    Journal:  Bilateral blindness after uneventful brolucizumab injection for macular degeneration. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 19, 2022   
    We do not recommend performing bilateral brolucizumab injections until more data is available regarding the mechanism of brolucizumab-induced vasculitis. From a clinical point of view, we find it difficult to justify the use of brolucizumab when there are other well-known agents, such as ranibizumab and aflibercept, which have better safety profiles and comparable efficacy.

    Journal:  Network analysis and the impact of Aflibercept on specific mediators of angiogenesis in HUVEC cells. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 15, 2022   
    Data showed Aflibercept simultaneously affected these processes and determined the nominated axes that had been affected by the drug. Furthermore, integrating the results of Aflibercept on expression of candidate genes with the current network analysis suggested that resistance against the Aflibercept effect is a plausible process in HUVEC cells.

    Furthermore, integrating the results of Aflibercept on expression of candidate genes with the current network analysis suggested that resistance against the Aflibercept effect is a plausible process in HUVEC cells. In DME, composite indices with baseline FAF predict variables such as BCVA in the follow-up of patients receiving ziv-AFL.

    Journal:  Delivery of nVEGFi using AAV8 for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration. (Pubmed Central) -  Feb 11, 2022   
    In a mouse laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV) model, 4 × 10 genome copies of AAV8-nVEGFi exhibited a significantly increased reduction in the CNV area compared with AAV8-aflibercept (78.1% vs. 63.9%, p < 0.05), while causing no structural or functional changes to the retina. In conclusion, this preclinical study showed that subretinal injection of AAV8-nVEGFi was long lasting, well tolerated, and effective for nAMD treatment, supporting future translation to the clinic.
