Aflibercept plus anti-PDGFRβ combo does not improve vision outcomes in nAMD

16 Feb 2020

The combination of intravitreal aflibercept and antiplatelet-derived growth factor receptor β (anti-PDGFRβ) falls short of improving best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in patients with treatment-naïve neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), as compared with intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) monotherapy, a phase II study has shown.
