摘要

Background

The main objective was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-VEGF Brolucizumab injection in vitrectomised eyes for post-vitrectomy recalcitrant macular edema in patients with nAMD/ PCV and recalcitrant diabetic macular edemas as per pro-re-nata protocol.

Patients and methods

A prospective, multi-centric non-randomised interventional study was performed where intravitreal injection of Brolucizumab was administered for post-vitrectomy recalcitrant macular edema as per pro-re-nata protocol. Vitrectomy was performed for sub-macular haemorrhage (Group A) and recalcitrant diabetic macular oedema (Group B).

Main outcomes measured

Pre- and post-injection BCVA and Central Foveal Thickness (CFT) were noted at 4, 12, 24, 36, 52, and 76 weeks.

Results

Eighty-one intravitreal injections of Brolucizumab were given in 51 eyes. The BCVA improved from pre-injection LogMAR 0.80 ± 0.32 to 6-month post-injection 0.65 ± 0.23 (Group A, p-value < 0.001, 95% CI) and LogMAR 0.70 ± 0.37 to 0.60 ± 0.34 (Group B, p = 0.378, 95% CI). Significant reduction in CFT noted from pre-injection 367.75 ± 124.12 microns to 6-month post-injection 291.09 ± 81.42 micron (A, p = 0.001, 95% CI) and from 468.45 ± 145.69 micron to 342.19 ± 117.91 micron (B, p = 0.002, 95% CI).

Conclusion

Brolucizumab may have the potential to be durable, effective and safe in vitrectomised eyes in both post-nAMD and diabetic patients.
