Switch to faricimab after initial treatment with aflibercept in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration

Switching to faricimab from aflibercept in refractory nAMD patients led to significant improvements in retinal fluid management and CST, with stable BCVA outcomes. Faricimab presents a promising alternative for patients requiring frequent aflibercept injections, potentially offering a more manageable treatment regimen with extended dosing intervals. This study highlights the need for personalized therapeutic strategies in nAMD treatment, though further research is necessary to optimize treatment switches.

Abstract

Switching to faricimab from aflibercept in refractory nAMD patients led to significant improvements in retinal fluid management and CST, with stable BCVA outcomes. Faricimab presents a promising alternative for patients requiring frequent aflibercept injections, potentially offering a more manageable treatment regimen with extended dosing intervals. This study highlights the need for personalized therapeutic strategies in nAMD treatment, though further research is necessary to optimize treatment switches.
