Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Percentage(%) of patients that are absent of SRF and IRF at Month 12.<br>The endpoint formulated in estimand terms is :<br>-Population : real-world nAMD patients<br>-Treatment : brolucizumab as received in routine care <br>-Variable(Endpoint / Outcome) : composite binary: absence of IRF and the absence of SRF. <br>-Summary measure for the variable : percentage of treated patients who reach the endpoint at 12 months <br>-Intercurrent events treatment discontinuation for any reason (including switching to another anti-VEGF)<br>-Strategy how to deal with intercurrent events : while-on-treatment strategy. <br>Patients who have discontinued brolucizumab before Month 12 will be counted as not having achieved the endpoint of fluid resolution (absence of SRF and IRF), unless they reached it at the last visit while still on brolucizumab treatment before the discontinuation.
