Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A prospective interventional case series study was conducted on 20 eyes of 20 patients with active myopic choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) ,20 eyes with resistant diabetic macular edema and 15 eyes with non ischaemic central retinal vein occlusion(CRVO) after approval of the Ethical Committee of the Faculty of Medicine, Tanta University . All procedures were carried out under the tenets of the Helsinki Declaration. Written consent was provided by all participants after discussing the procedure, alternative treatment plans, follow-up schedules, and possible benefits and risks.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Ziv-Aflibercept 25 MG/ML [Zaltrap]
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

Intravitreal injection of 1.25 mg of ziv aflibercept was done in different retinal diseases including myopic CVN,resistant diabetic macular edema to previous ranibizumab injection and non ischaemic CRVO .Thorough ophthalmic evaluation was done including BCVA(best corrected visual acuity) ,anterior and posterior segment examination ,fundus fluorescein angiography and OCT(optical coherence tomography) were performed for all patients .Injection was repeated as PRN(pro re nata) method after one month if persistent intraretinal or subretinal fluid was found.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Improvement of BCVA by log MAR(minimum angle of resolution) and reduction of CMT after intravitreal injection [6 months]

      To assess sustained improvement of BCVA(Best corrected visual acuity) and reduction of the CMT (central macular thickness) after intravitreal injection of zivaflibercept
