Trial Outcomes & Findings for Aflibercept in Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy (NCT NCT02120950)

NCT ID: NCT02120950

Last Updated: 2020-12-02

Results Overview

Visual function of the study eye and fellow eye was assessed at each study visit according to the standard procedure developed for the ETDRS adapted for Age Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS), using 70 letter charts at a starting distance of 4 meters. Participants were challenged with reading letters on lines of an eye chart (5 letters per line). Lines became smaller as participants progressed from the top to the bottom of the chart. Participants read down the chart until they reached a row where a minimum of three letters on a line could be read, and were scored by how many letters could be correctly identified.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at multiple centers in 8 countries worldwide starting from 29 May 2014 (first subject first visit). Primary completion reached on 12 Aug 2016.

Overall, 428 subjects were screened, of them 95 were failed in screening. Remaining 333 subjects received at least one treatment. Of them, 15 subjects discontinued study participation before week 12 and were not randomized. Remaining 318 were randomized.

Aflibercept + Sham Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
Participants received 2 milligram (mg) Intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) (Eylea, VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321) every month for the first 3 months (run-in period). At Week 12, subjects were randomized to receive Aflibercept injection plus sham photodynamic therapy (only in subjects qualifying for rescue therapy).
Aflibercept + Active PDT
Participants received 2 mg Intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) (Eylea, VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321) every month for the first 3 months (run-in period). At Week 12, subjects were randomized to receive Aflibercept injection plus active photodynamic therapy (only in subjects qualifying for rescue therapy) until Week 52. Between Week 52 and Week 96, the treatment interval could have been extended (typically in increments of 1 or 2 weeks) at the discretion of the investigator when the visual and anatomic outcomes allowed
Aflibercept (Non-randomized)
Participants received 2 mg Intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) (Eylea, VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321) every month for the first 3 months (run-in period), but discontinued study participation before randomization

Timeframe: Baseline to Week 52

Population: FAS

Evaluations for qualification for rescue were conducted at each visit from Week 12 to Week 52. Intensified aflibercept treatment plus active or sham PDT treatments were given at any of these visits if treatment criteria were met. Qualification for rescue was based upon insufficient gain of BCVA, leakage, and presence of active polyps.

Retinal and lesion characteristics, such as central retinal thickness (CRT), were evaluated by OCT in both eyes at every study visit. CRT was measured using optical coherence tomography to determine the average thickness of the retina in a circle with 1 millimeter of diameter centered on the fovea. This value is reported by some OCT devices as central subfield thickness (CST).

The NEI VFQ-25 total score ranges from 0-100 with a score of 0 being the worst outcome and 100 being the best outcome. The NEI VFQ questionnaire is organized as a collection of subscales which are all scored from 0-100. To reach the overall composite score, each sub-scale score is averaged in order to give each sub-scale equal weight.

Between Week 52 and Week 96, the treatment interval could have been extended (typically in increments of 1 or 2 weeks) at the discretion of the investigator when the visual and anatomic outcomes allowed.

Aflibercept + Sham PDT
n=157 participants at risk
Subjects received 2 milligram (mg) Intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) (Eylea, VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321) every month for the first 3 months (run-in period).At Week 12, subjects were assessed for the rescue treatment and randomized to receive Aflibercept injection plus sham photodynamic therapy (only in subjects qualifying for rescue therapy) until Week 52. Between Week 52 and Week 96, the treatment interval could have been extended (typically in increments of 1 or 2 weeks) at the discretion of the investigator when the visual and anatomic outcomes allowed.
