Long-term Treatment Patterns for Diabetic Macular Edema
Objective
To characterize anti-VEGF intravitreal therapy (IVT) patterns and long-term visual outcomes among patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) in routine clinical practice in the United States.
Design
Retrospective analysis of the American Academy of Ophthalmology’s IRIS® (Intelligent Research in Sight) Registry.
Participants
Treatment-naïve patients with DME (no previous IVT in the past 12 months) initiating anti-VEGF IVT from January 1, 2015, to March 31, 2021.
Methods
Baseline characteristics, treatment patterns, and long-term visual acuity (VA) outcomes were reported for up to 6 years of follow-up.
Main Outcome Measures
Outcomes included the annualized number of injections, change in VA, and anti-VEGF agents.
Results
A total of 190 345 eyes met the inclusion criteria. After 1 year of anti-VEGF IVT initiation, eyes received a mean of 3.9 (±2.8) injections and gained +3.2 (±16.4) letters of vision. Of the 1236 eyes with year 6 data, eyes received a mean of 2.9 (±2.1) injections in year 6 and gained +0.5 (±19.7) letters from baseline. The number of injections decreased, and injection intervals increased year over year up to 6 years regardless of baseline VA initiation. The average injection interval was 10 weeks in year 1 and increased to 13.2 weeks in year 2 before plateauing in years 3 to 6 (12.6, 12.3, 12.2, and 12.3 weeks, respectively). Improvements in VA from baseline were greatest in eyes that received 5 or more injections each year. At the end of follow-up, eyes with good baseline vision (>20/25) lost vision, whereas those with worse baseline vision (<20/25) gained vision. Although 51.7% of patients with DME discontinued IVT after a mean of 6 months, 32.8% reinitiated anti-VEGF IVT. Worse VA outcomes were associated with patients of Hispanic ethnicity (–1.08; 95% confidence interval: –1.34, –0.83] compared with non-Hispanic), Medicaid insurance (–1.15; 95% confidence interval: –1.48, –0.81 compared with commercial), and older age (–0.06; 95% confidence interval: –0.07, –0.05] each additional year).
Conclusions
Patients with DME in routine clinical settings receive fewer injections than those in clinical trials and fewer than recommended per the label of US Food and Drug Administration-approved anti-VEGF IVT.
