About this study

The study is both retrospective and prospective to collect local real life data on patients under routine treatment. The observation period starts on January 2014. Patients who have received the 1st injection with Eylea from January 2014 will be enrolled.

Patients will be followed up for a period of 48 months or until it is no longer possible

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

  • Patient with a diagnosis of wet AMD will be enrolled after the decision for treatment with Aflibercept (Eylea) has been made
  • Patient with 1st injection of Eylea from 01 January 2014 until 30 April 2015 will be enrolled
  • Prior/current treatment with any anti-VEGF intravitreal injections or macular laser (laser and/or visudyne/PDT) in the fellow eye is allowed
  • Man or woman aged 18 years or more
  • Patient who has been given appropriate information about the study objectives and procedures and who has given his/her written, informed consent;

Exclusion criteria

  • Patient with another retinal disease: diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular oedema (DME), myopic choroidal neovascularization, retinal vein occlusion (RVO), central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), angioid streaks
  • Patient who does not meet the local indication criteria for Eylea treatment.Contraindications listed in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) must be taken into account
  • Patient who has previously been treated with any macular laser (laser and/or visudyne/PDT) or any anti-VEGF intravitreal injections for the study eye

Treatment and study plan

Aflibercept (Eylea, VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321)

Drug

Administration by intravitreal injection

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in the measurement of best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from baseline to 12 months.

    Time frame: Baseline to 12 months

    As assessed by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) method or any visual logarithmic scale

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) during the second year and until the fourth year of treatment versus the initial visit

    Time frame: Baseline to 2 year, 3 year, 4 year

  2. Percentage of patients who experienced a gain in BCVA, from initial visit to each follow-up visit (letter score of ≥ 0 letters, ≥ 5 letters, ≥ 10 letters, ≥ 15 letters)

    Time frame: Baseline to 1 year, 2 year, 3 year, 4 year

  3. Percentage of patients losing fewer than 15 letters from the initial visit visual acuity at each follow-up visit

    Time frame: Baseline to 1 year, 2 year, 3 year, 4 year
