Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration that leads to progressive and irreversible vision loss. The course of visual decline varies widely among patients, and it is not always clear which anatomical features of the retina are associated with faster loss of vision. This retrospective observational study aims to describe the natural history of vision loss in patients with geographic atrophy who have characteristics similar to those enrolled in the ARCHER II clinical trial. The study will analyze previously collected clinical and imaging data from patients followed during routine clinical care at a single center. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the relationship between changes in visual function and retinal anatomical features, such as the size and location of atrophic lesions and retinal layer integrity, using fundus autofluorescence and optical coherence tomography images. No treatments or study procedures are performed as part of this research. All data used in the study were collected during standard clinical practice and analyzed retrospectively.
NCT07365371
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy, durability, and safety of aflibercept 8 mg in treating Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy (PCV) in Chinese naive patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) at Week 52 from baseline in different treatment regimens? 2. What proportion of patients achieve sustained disease control after receiving the loading dose? Participants will: * Receive intravitreal aflibercept 8 mg loading doses (3 initial monthly doses). * In Arm A: * Undergo reinjections based on disease activity, with follow-up examinations every 4 weeks until week 48. * Return for an end-of-study visit at week 52. * In Arm B: * Undergo an examination at week 12 and subsequent treatments based on disease activity, with a maximum interval of 20 weeks and a minimum interval of 8 weeks between doses if the disease remains inactive. * Return for an end-of-study visit at week 52. This study will assess the efficacy, safety and durability of aflibercept 8mg in these 2 regimens.

Development of novel clinical endpoints for interventional clinical trials with a regulatory and patient access intention in patients with intermediate age-related macular degeneration (AMD) - MACUSTAR
NCT01983579
This is a prospective, open label study assessing the 24-hour IOP patterns using TF in patients undergoing anti-VEGF injection for the treatment of neovascular AMD (age related macular degeneration). The study will be proposed to patients with AMD and patients with AMD and concomitant open angle glaucoma (OAG). The study will be conducted in two stages. In both stages, patients will remain ambulatory and will be encouraged to follow a schedule as close to their usual lifestyle as possible, with the exception of particular activities such as caffeine intake, playing wind instruments, yoga and strenuous exercise. A patient diary will be distributed for the capture of patient activities during the TF pattern recording. Upon completion of each session, the CLS (contact lens sensor) will be removed and a final ophthalmic examination will be conducted. In the first stage of the study, 20 patients with neovascular AMD with an IOP in the normal range and no concomitant glaucoma will be recruited. After having signed and dated the patient informed consent form, patients will undergo an initial ophthalmic examination. One eye will be selected for the study. If both eyes are eligible, the study eye will be selected in random manner. All 20 AMD patients will receive two 24-hour recording sessions (S) with the TF CLS, at monthly interval. In the first session (S1) anti-VEGF injection will be carried out according to the study center standard protocol. For the second 24-hour TF recording session (S2), patients will be randomly distributed into three groups. Group A, consisting of 5 patients, will receive anti-VEGF injection with a different anti-VEGF substance as compared to S1. Group B, also consisting of 5 patients, will receive anti-VEGF without sclerotomy occlusion after injection as compared to S1. Finally, group C, including 10 patients, will receive anti-VEGF in a different dose (injection volume) as compared to S1. The randomization ratio between groups A, B and C is 1:1:2. The overall study duration for an eligible patient in the first stage of this study is limited to 5 weeks. If in the first stage of this study an injection protocol is identified that provokes significantly lesser elevation on the TF pattern, the alternative injection protocol will be evaluated against the current standard protocol. For the second stage, 30 patients of whom 15 with neovascular AMD and 15 with neovascular AMD and concomitant OAG will be recruited. After giving informed consent and confirmation of eligibility, all patients will receive two 24-hour TF CLS recording sessions (S3 and S4) at monthly interval, during which anti-VEGF injection according to the standard and alternative protocol will be carried out in random sequence. The overall study duration for a patient in the second stage of the study is limited to 5 weeks. The study has been planned to recruit 20 eligible patients in the first stage within 12 weeks from the date of initiation. The second stage will recruit 30 patients within 16 weeks. Hence the overall study duration from the first patient accrued into the study until last patient out equates to about 33 weeks. Allowing for a database lock within 4 weeks of study completion, a preliminary statistical report on the primary efficacy endpoint is foreseen within 2 weeks thereafter.
