Summary

This study tests whether switching wet AMD patients who don't respond well to the standard 2mg dose of aflibercept (Eylea) to a higher 8mg dose can extend the time between injections while keeping vision stable. Fifty adults who have already had at least four 2mg injections will receive the higher dose and be followed for 12 months. The goal is to see if fewer injections are needed without losing vision benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
aflibercept (8 mg injection)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could allow wet AMD patients to go longer between eye injections while keeping their vision stable.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 50 participants. The higher dose may not work better or could cause more side effects like eye inflammation or vision changes.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients, who received prior intravitreal anti-VEGF-treatment for nAMD with Aflibercept 2mg. A minimum of four injections of Aflibercept 2mg is required. Therefore 16-24 weeks prior treatment with anti-VEGF is required in line with an interval of 4-8 weeks. * Short treatment intervals of 4 or 8 weeks * nAMD * Age 21 or older * Written informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * Chronic treatment with Bevacizumab or Faricimab * Extensive macular fibrosis * Diabetic retinopathy * Other retinal pathologies (e.g. retinal vein occlusion) * Dense media opacities (cataract, corneal scars) * Vitreous hemorrhage * Ocular or periocular infections * Active intraocular inflammation * Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients * Prior Aflibercept 8mg treatment * Pregnancy (for women in reproductive age a pregnancy test will be performed)
