Archway Randomized Phase 3 Trial of the Port Delivery System with Ranibizumab for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Nancy M. Holekamp et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of Port Delivery System (PDS) with ranibizumab for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). The results showed that PDS was noninferior and equivalent to monthly ranibizumab, with a high percentage of PDS-treated patients not requiring supplemental treatment within the first 24 weeks.

THE ANGIOPOIETIN/TIE PATHWAY IN RETINAL VASCULAR DISEASES A Review

Jeffrey S. Heier et al.

Summary: This review aims to provide ophthalmologists and practicing retina specialists with an overview of clinical evidence and therapeutic potential of targeting the angiopoietin/Tie pathway in retinal vascular diseases. Literature search and clinical trials suggest that drugs targeting this pathway may have potential benefits in treating retinal vascular diseases due to the synergistic nature of the pathways involved.

Brolucizumab: a novel anti-VEGF humanized single-chain antibody fragment for treating w-AMD

Lorenzo Ferro Desideri et al.

Summary: Wet age-related macular degeneration (w-AMD) is a leading cause of visual impairment in developed countries. Brolucizumab, a single-chain antibody fragment targeting all isoforms of VEGF-A, has shown longer durability and superior anatomical outcomes in comparison to standard care for w-AMD. It has been approved in Europe, USA, and Japan for w-AMD management.

Pericyte Insulin Receptors Modulate Retinal Vascular Remodeling and Endothelial Angiopoietin Signaling

Nele Warmke et al.

Summary: Pericytes play a crucial role in regulating vascular development and stability, with dysfunction potentially contributing to diabetic retinopathy. Knockout of insulin receptors in pericytes resulted in abnormal vascular development, indicating the importance of insulin signaling in promoting angiopoietin-1 secretion and endothelial Tie2 signaling.

Alessandro Arrigo et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of anti-VEGF treatment on neovascular AMD in a real-life setting. Results showed no significant changes in BCVA at 1-year and 2-year follow-ups, but CMT was significantly reduced. Different types of macular neovascularization and baseline BCVA were found to correlate with visual outcomes.

An overview of gene therapies in the pipeline for ocular disorders

L. Ferro Desideri et al.

Summary: Ocular gene therapy has shown promise as a treatment option for inherited retinal diseases, utilizing an adeno-associated virus vector. Beyond hereditary conditions, research is also exploring gene therapy for nonheritable eye disorders like wet age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma. The potential clinical benefits and reduced treatment burden of gene therapy for ocular disorders are topics of interest for ongoing study.

Pericyte Insulin Receptors Modulate Retinal Vascular Remodeling and Endothelial Angiopoietin Signaling

Nele Warmke et al.

Summary: In this study, pericyte insulin signaling was found to promote angiopoietin-1 secretion and endothelial Tie2 signaling. Disruption of this pathway led to excessive vascular sprouting and venous plexus abnormalities, mimicking diabetic retinopathy characteristics. Future research should focus on evaluating the role of pericyte insulin signaling in this disease.
