Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This retrospective study included nAMD patients whose eyes were grouped into the following cohorts, with the overall cohort receiving ≥ 1 brolucizumab injection; the 12-month and 18-month brolucizumab (BRO) cohorts, which consisted of nAMD patient eyes who switched from a previous anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and had ≥3 brolucizumab injections with no other anti-VEGF in the first 12 months (360 days) and 18 months (540 days) of follow-up respectively; and the 12-month and 18-month alternating (ALT) cohorts, which consisted of nAMD patient eyes who switched from a previous anti-VEGF to brolucizumab and had ≥2 brolucizumab injections and ≥1 injection of another anti-VEGF in the first 12 months and 18 months of follow-up, respectively.
