New hope for PCV: higher-dose eye injection may reduce treatment burden

NCT ID NCT07365371

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a stronger dose (8 mg) of the drug aflibercept in Chinese patients with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), a type of wet age-related macular degeneration that can cause rapid vision loss. About 174 people who have not been treated before will receive three monthly eye injections, then be assigned to one of two retreatment schedules based on disease activity. The goal is to see if the higher dose can improve vision and keep the disease under control with fewer visits and injections over one year.
