Summary

The primary objective of the study was to investigate current criteria driving re-treatment in patients affected by Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV) secondary to Pathologic Myopia (PM) and experiencing a relapse of the disease after the first administration of ranibizumab.

Conditions

  • Choroidal Neovascularization Secondary to Pathologic Myopia

Interventions

DRUG

Ranibizumab

All patients received a single initial intravitreal injection of ranibizumab 0.5 mg/0.05 ml as per Committee for Human Medicinal Products (CHMP)approval. Further injections might have been required when monitoring reveals disease activity. Disease activity, defined as reduced visual acuity and/or signs of lesion activity, was evaluated based on clinical examination (BCVA, fundus), and/or optical coherence tomography (OCT), and/or fluorescein angiography (FAG). Bilateral treatment was allowed provided at least 14 days of intercurrence.
