Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the early real-world clinical outcomes regarding safety and efficacy after administering the aflibercept 2 mg biosimilar (Tyalia, Cinnagen, Tehran, Iran).
Methods: A retrospective, uncontrolled observational study was conducted with a total of 499 Tyalia injections given in 189 eyes of 148 patients for variable indications. All patients were treated with at least one intravitreal injection of Tyalia 2 mg; 102 eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (n-AMD), 67 eyes with diabetic macular oedema (DMO), and 20 eyes with retinal vein occlusion (RVO) associated with macular oedema were included in the analysis.
Results: The mean central subfield thickness (CST) of the overall group improved from baseline to the last follow-up from 408.8 ± 155.1 µ to 353.4 ± 142.4 µ (p < 0.001). Best corrected visual acuity was found to be stable in the total cohort. The total number of adverse events (AEs) was (0.4%).
Conclusions: The preliminary real-world data from this limited early series suggest that Tyalia appears to have similar clinical efficacy and safety as aflibercept 2 mg innovator across the approved indications. However, long-term data with a larger population are needed to further strengthen the findings of this study.
期刊介绍:
Eye seeks to provide the international practising ophthalmologist with high quality articles, of academic rigour, on the latest global clinical and laboratory based research. Its core aim is to advance the science and practice of ophthalmology with the latest clinical- and scientific-based research. Whilst principally aimed at the practising clinician, the journal contains material of interest to a wider readership including optometrists, orthoptists, other health care professionals and research workers in all aspects of the field of visual science worldwide. Eye is the official journal of The Royal College of Ophthalmologists.
Eye encourages the submission of original articles covering all aspects of ophthalmology including: external eye disease; oculo-plastic surgery; orbital and lacrimal disease; ocular surface and corneal disorders; paediatric ophthalmology and strabismus; glaucoma; medical and surgical retina; neuro-ophthalmology; cataract and refractive surgery; ocular oncology; ophthalmic pathology; ophthalmic genetics.
