Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study was to generate additional safety and effectiveness data in Indian neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) patients that more closely resemble the real-world population intended to be treated with brolucizumab. This study was conducted as part of the post-marketing regulatory commitment to the Indian Health authority.
Detailed Description:
The study was a prospective, multi-center, open-label, interventional phase IV clinical study.
The study treatment, i.e., brolucizumab was prescribed in terms of the marketing authorization; the assignment of the patient to the therapy was decided within the current practice and the medical indication. It was clearly separated from the decision to include the patient in the study.
All patients with Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration (nAMD) who were planned to be treated with brolucizumab and had provided informed consent were enrolled in the study. A total of 12 sites in India were evaluated for the study conduct. This is to note that site #03 was not selected, and site #07 was not initiated, and patients were enrolled in the study only from 10 sites.
The treatment period for each patient was 56 weeks after the start of brolucizumab treatment.
Study visits were scheduled at Week 4, Week 8, Week 16, and thereafter at intervals of 8 weeks or 12 weeks after disease activity assessment at Week 16. If the investigators required more frequent follow-up visits, it was done according to their discretion and clinical judgment. Any patient who suffered from IOI during the study period was not re-challenged with brolucizumab.
The study population consisted of adult male and female outpatients aged 50 years and above, diagnosed with nAMD for whom the treating the physician (Investigator) had prescribed treatment with brolucizumab 6 mg injection in adherence with the local Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) or Prescribing Information (PI).
