摘要

Objective

To evaluate the efficacy of faricimab in various retinal conditions in previously treated patients.

Methods

This study included patients who received at least three faricimab injections at a large medical center between April 2023 and October 2024, all of whom were not naive to treatment.

Results

A total of 242 eyes from 219 patients were included in the analysis. The diagnoses were: 139 eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (NVAMD), 63 eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME), 24 eyes with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV), 5 eyes with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to central serous retinopathy (CSR), 5 eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) accompanied by cystoid macular edema (CME), 3 eyes with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) with CME, and 3 eyes with myopic CNV. Patients had previously received intravitreal injections of medications including bevacizumab, ranibizumab, aflibercept 2 mg, brolucizumab, triamcinolone, and Ozurdex. Following treatment with faricimab, the proportion of eyes with no intraretinal or subretinal fluid increased across all retinal diseases. Additionally, the average central subfield thickness decreased, the interval between injections was extended, and average visual acuity improved in every retinal condition. The average height of the pigment epithelium detachment (PED) decreased in cases of NVAMD and PCV.

Conclusions

Faricimab appears to be effective after the failure of other treatment options.
