AIM: To report the 24mo outcomes of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors for myopic choroidal neovascularization (mCNV) in routine clinical practice and simultaneously evaluated the real-world safety. METHODS: The patients who received intravitreal injections of VEGF inhibitors of either ranibizumab (0.5 mg) or conbercept (0.5 mg) for mCNV were analyzed from 1 January 2017 to 1 January 2022. The primary outcome variables were mean change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central macular thickness (CMT) changes. The secondary outcome variables included IOP changes, the period of mCNV re-treatment, and ocular adverse events. RESULTS: Totally 83 patients aged 56.40±15.36y with axial length 29.67±2.09 mm were included. In visual acuity, the mean logMAR BCVA at baseline was 0.81±0.43. After the initial improvement at 1, 3, and 6mo (<0.05), from month 12 onwards, no statistical difference compared to baseline was found. The mean CMT from 1mo onwards had a statistically significant decrease compared with baseline CMT (<0.05). The regression model showed better baseline BCVA and thicker baseline CMT, significantly associated with the final outcomes. In univariate analysis, choosing 3+ (PRN) as the initial injection treatment regimen was associated with better BCVA at 24mo [hazard ratio (HR)=-0.65, 95%CI: -1.23, -0.07, =0.048]. However, the difference was not significant in multivariate analysis (HR=-0.59, 95%CI: -1.21, 0.03, =0.089). Regarding mCNV recurrence, the mean period (=0.725) and the proportion of mCNV reactivation (=1.00) were similar between ranibizumab and conbercept. Kaplan-Meier plot also analyzed that the median time of re-injection was not significantly different among gender, drug, and initial injection treatment regimen. No systemic adverse events related to the therapy were observed. CONCLUSION: BCVA gains achieved by the end of our study maintain generally sustained at the 24-mo follow-up. The findings also indicate that ranibizumab and conbercept demonstrate comparable efficacy and safety profiles. Additionally, intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy using 1+PRN regimen, offers certain advantages in both efficacy and cost-effectiveness.
目的:报告血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)抑制剂治疗近视性脉络膜新生血管(mCNV)24个月的临床疗效,并同时评估其真实世界中的安全性。 方法:分析2017年1月1日至2022年1月1日期间接受玻璃体内注射雷珠单抗(0.5mg)或康柏西普(0.5mg)治疗mCNV的患者。主要观察指标为最佳矫正视力(BCVA)的平均变化和中心黄斑厚度(CMT)的变化。次要观察指标包括眼压变化、mCNV再次治疗的时间以及眼部不良事件。 结果:共纳入83例患者,年龄56.40±15.36岁,眼轴长度29.67±2.09mm。视力方面,基线时平均logMAR BCVA为0.81±0.43。在1、3和6个月时初始改善后(<0.05),从12个月起,与基线相比无统计学差异。从1个月起,平均CMT与基线CMT相比有统计学显著下降(<0.05)。回归模型显示,较好的基线BCVA和较厚的基线CMT与最终结果显著相关。单因素分析中,选择3+(按需给药)作为初始注射治疗方案与24个月时更好的BCVA相关[风险比(HR)=-0.65,95%CI:-1.23,-0.07,P=0.048]。然而,多因素分析中差异无统计学意义(HR=-0.59,95%CI:-1.21,0.03,P=0.089)。关于mCNV复发,雷珠单抗和康柏西普之间的平均复发时间(P=0.725)和mCNV再激活比例(P=1.00)相似。Kaplan-Meier曲线分析还显示,再次注射的中位时间在性别、药物和初始注射治疗方案之间无显著差异。未观察到与治疗相关的全身不良事件。 结论:在我们的研究结束时获得的BCVA改善在24个月随访中总体上得以维持。研究结果还表明,雷珠单抗和康柏西普显示出相当的疗效和安全性。此外,采用1+按需给药方案的玻璃体内抗VEGF治疗在疗效和成本效益方面均具有一定优势。
