Short-term real-world outcomes following intravitreal brolucizumab for neovascular AMD: SHIFT study

Louisa Maria Bulirsch et al.

Summary: Switch to brolucizumab may be a viable treatment option for nAMD patients who are poorly responsive to other anti-VEGF agents, as indicated by the SHIFT study results. However, further long-term analyses are necessary to assess the efficacy and safety of brolucizumab in a routine clinical setting.

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.

Sustained-release drug delivery systems for the treatment of glaucoma

Natasha P. Kesav et al.

Summary: Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness affecting over 64 million people worldwide. Current medical management methods have drawbacks such as poor patient adherence and side effects, but novel ocular drug delivery platforms promise differentiated drug formulations with patient-independent administration. Several promising platforms are in development, including the recently approved Bimatoprost Sustained Release (SR) intracameral implant.

Expert Opinion on Management of Intraocular Inflammation, Retinal Vasculitis, and Vascular Occlusion after Brolucizumab Treatment

Caroline R. Baumal et al.

Summary: This study presents clinical presentations and management recommendations for ocular inflammatory events in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) patients treated with brolucizumab. Recommendations include thorough ocular examinations and imaging modalities, prompt cessation of treatment and intensive therapy if diagnosed with inflammatory events, and consideration of individualized locally available standard of care based on clinical outcomes.
