First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study tests whether people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) can safely extend the time between eye injections earlier than usual, skipping the standard three monthly loading doses. About 80 adults aged 50+ with active wet AMD will receive either aflibercept or brolucizumab and be followed for up to two years. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the number of injections needed while still controlling the disease.
