The Impact of Baseline Visual Acuity on the Treatment Outcomes in Patients Treated With AflIbercept in Real-life Clinical Setting

Completed
Conditions
Wet Macular Degeneration
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03278262
Lead Sponsor
Bayer
Brief Summary

The study will assess the mean change in Visual Acuity (VA) (overall and stratified by baseline VA) at year 1 and 2 of treatment with Aflibercept in real-life setting.

In addition, the study will ascertain the baseline VA in treatment -naïve Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration or neo-vascular AMD (wAMD) patients who start treatment with Aflibercept in a real-life setting and it will assess the impact of baseline VA on the outcomes of Aflibercept treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Visual Acuity (VA) (Snellen)at 3±1 months, 6±1months, 12±2 months and at 24±2 months follow-up

Change in VA (Snellen) at 3±1 months, 6±1months, 12±2 months and at 24±2 months follow-up in all eyes and stratified in the three groups by Visual Acuity (VA) at baseline.

Change in Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS)at 3±1 months, 6±1months, 12±2 months and at 24±2 months follow-up

Change Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) in all eyes and stratified in the three groups by VA at baseline.

Change in Lasbarhetsindex (LIX, Readability Index)at 3±1 months, 6±1months, 12±2 months and at 24±2 months follow-up

Change in LIX in all eyes and stratified in the three groups by VA at baseline. LIX: Jaeger/LIX adult A chart (Ortho-KM, Lund, Sweden). The LIX-chart is a standardized readability index for measuring near vision and it is used almost ubiquitously in eye clinics in Sweden
