Real World Evidence in China: Faricimab Use in Diabetic Macular Edema, Retinal Vein Occlusion, and Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (The Farseeing Study)

The Farseeing Study will explore long-term effectiveness, safety, and treatment patterns among patients being treated with faricimab in real-world, routine clinical practice in China. It is a primary data collection, non-interventional, prospective and retrospective, multi-center study designed to collect real-world, long-term data to gain clinical evidence on faricimab, by observing cohorts of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), diabetic macular edema (DME), and retinal vein occlusion (RVO) who are receiving treatment with faricimab.

  5. Percentage of Eyes on Each Treatment Regimen (Fixed, Treat-and-Extend, As Needed, or Other)

    Time frame: From Baseline to Month 24

  6. Number of Treatments per Year

    Time frame: Months 12 and 24

  7. Percentage of Eyes with Treatment Switch by Reason for Switch Over Time

    Time frame: Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24

  8. Percentage of Eyes with Treatment Regimen Switch (Fixed, Treat-and-Extend, As Needed, or Other) by Reason for Switch Over Time

  9. Total Number of Visits per Year

    Time frame: Months 12 and 24

  10. Number of Visits With or Without Treatment per Year

    Time frame: Months 12 and 24

  11. Time Interval Between Treatments per Year

    Time frame: Months 12 and 24
