Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
However, recently, the first choice treatment for wAMD has shifted to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs, such as bevacizumab(Avastin,Genentech Inc), ranibizumab (Lucentis, Genentech Inc)and aflibercept (Eylea, Regeneron,Berlin,Germany) from PDT, and the vision improving effect has been confirmed regardless of race or disease subtype. Therefore, eyes with PCV can be treated initially with anti-VEGF drugs, however, they are limited in their ability to resolve polypoidal lesions, for which PDT works effectively.
Combination therapy of PDT and anti-VEGF drugs provides the complementary effects of both treatments, but it remains unknown whether PDT should have been administered at the beginning of treatment or during follow-up of anti-VEGF therapy. The purpose of this study was to compare the 12-months treatment results of initial and delayed PDT combined with conbercept (Lumitin, Chengdu Kang Hong Biotech Co., Ltd., Sichuan, China) for PCV.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Initial PDT combination with Conbercept
1. Conbercept 0.5 mg(0.05ml): Administered at baseline, and then PRN based on retreatment criteria monthly from month 1 to 11.
2. PDT: PDT with verteporfin is administered at baseline and then PRN PDT combination with conbercept injection based on retreatment criteria from month 3 to 11.
PDT treatment must be administered within 7 days after the injection. If same day treatment of conbercept and PDT is performed, conbercept injection is to be administered at least 2 hours after the PDT.
PDT should cover the whole area of polyps and branch vascular net (BVN).The PRN PDT retreatment intervals should be no less than 3 months.
conbercept
At baseline conbercept injection is administered.And thereafter is administered based on re-treatment criteria from month 1 to 11.The PRN conbercept re-injection should be monthly.
Initial PDT
At baseline PDT with verteporfin is administered initially.And thereafter PDT is administered based on re-treatment criteria from month 3 to 11.The PRN PDT retreatment intervals should be no less than 3 months.
Delayed PDT combination with Conbercept
