Summary

There are limited prospective data regarding the potential benefit and risks associated with switching between anti-VEGF therapies in patients with nAMD who have initially achieved a favorable response to the first anti-VEGF therapy used but subsequently have evidence of increasing disease activity despite continuation of therapy. This study will fill this knowledge gap by prospectively evaluating the effectiveness and safety of switching from aflibercept to ranibizumab in nAMD patients that have non - sustained response to initial treatment with aflibercept.
