Durability of every-8-week aflibercept maintenance therapy in treatment-experienced neovascular age-related macular degeneration.

Purpose: To determine the proportion of treatment-experienced eyes with exudative age-related macular degeneration successfully treated with every-4-week aflibercept that can be kept dry on fixed every-8-week aflibercept injections (maintenance).

Methods: In this retrospective chart review, we evaluated our cohort of patients treated with a treatment paradigm for CNV in AMD. Initially, patients were treated with bevacizumab or ranibizumab and switched to every-4-week aflibercept when therapeutic responses were not durable or were suboptimal.
