Introduction: People with haemophilia A (PwHA) experience acute and chronic pain associated with reduced quality of life (QoL).

Aims: This post hoc analysis of pooled data from the HAVEN 1 (NCT02622321), 3 (NCT02847637), 4 (NCT03020160) and STASEY (NCT0319179) studies assessed the impact of emicizumab prophylaxis on pain-related QoL in PwHA.

Methods: PwHA received emicizumab during the four studies.

Purpose: To derive estimates of clinically meaningful change (improvement) on the 25-item National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI VFQ-25) in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) using anchor- and distribution-based methods.

Methods: In this exploratory post hoc analysis of data from the RIDE/RISE (NCT00473382/NCT00473330) clinical trials of ranibizumab for DME, the NEI VFQ-25 was completed at baseline and six, 12, 18, and 24 months. Anchor-based (≥5-, ≥10-, and ≥15-letter gain in best-corrected visual acuity [BCVA]) and distribution-based estimates were calculated.

Introduction: New anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatments are emerging for the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME)/neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). This study aimed to explore the treatment attributes patients find important when deciding on treatment options.

Methods: This noninterventional survey study assessed treatment preferences through a discrete choice experiment (DCE) among patients with DME/nAMD in the USA, Canada, France, Italy, Spain, and the UK.

Introduction: Diabetic macular edema (DME) and neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) require frequent anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment and monitoring visits. We aimed to understand the burden of treatment on caregivers.

Methods: This multinational, noninterventional study used a cross-sectional survey of adult patients with DME or nAMD treated with anti-VEGF injections in the USA, Canada, France, Italy, Spain, and the UK.
