Incidence of Retinal Vasculitis Among Patients Receiving Aflibercept: A US Real-World Evidence Study

Study Purpose

This study will describe and estimate the incidence of Retinal Vasculitis (RV) events among patients and patient eyes receiving aflibercept intravitreal (IVT) (Eylea®, aflibercept 2mg) therapy in US clinical practice. The main objective is to describe demographic and clinical characteristics of patients receiving aflibercept 2mg injections, to estimate the incidence of RV and RV plus Intraocular Inflammation (IOI) following aflibercept 2mg injections and to describe characteristics of RV cases.

Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT07105228
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
