The primary efficacy analysis was on the changes in IOP from baseline to Week 1 (LOCF).

Outcome measures

Measure
Aflibercept 2 mg Intravitreal (IVT) Injection Group
n=16 Participants
Japanese patients with neovascular glaucoma
Change in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) From Baseline to Week 1
-8.3 mmHg
Standard Deviation 7.3

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and week 1

NVI Grade: 0=No iris neovascularization; 1=Fine surface neovascularization of the pupillary zone of the iris involving less than two quadrants; 2=Surface neovascularization of the pupillary zone of the iris involving more than two quadrants; 3=In addition to neovascularization of the pupillary zone, neovascularization of the ciliary zone of the iris and/or ectropion uveae involving one to three quadrants; 4=In addition to neovascularization of the pupillary zone, neovascularization of the ciliary zone of the iris and/or ectropion uveae involving more than three quadrants. The change in NVI grades categorized to "Improved" means improvement by at least one grade from baseline.
