  • Effects of conbercept on type 1 macular neovascularization with different types of pigment epithelial detachment in neovascular age-related macular degeneration

    ObjectiveTo observe the efficacy of intravitreal injection of conbercept (IVC) in the treatment of type 1 macular neovascularization (MNV) with different types of pigment epithelial detachment (PED) in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). MethodsA retrospective clinical study. From June 2018 to June 2021, 42 patients with 42 eyes of nAMD type 1 MNV patients with different types of PED diagnosed in the ophthalmological examination of the Department of Ophthalmology, General Hospital of Central Theater Command were included in the study. All eyes underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT). The OCT examination was performed with a 3D-OCT 2000 instrument from Topcon Company in Japan. The fovea was scanned, and the PED height (PEDH), PED area (PEDA), PED volume (PEDV), and central foveal thickness (CFT) were measured. According to the OCT image features of PED, the affected eyes were divided into serous PED (sPED), fibrovascular PED (fPED), and hemorrhagic PED (hPED), and were grouped accordingly. Among the 42 eyes, 16 (38.1%, 16/42), 14 (33.3%, 14/42), and 12 (28.6%, 12/42) eyes were in the sPED group, fPED group, and hPED group, respectively. All patients received IVC treatment once a month for 3 consecutive months, and then on-demand treatment after assessment. BCVA and OCT were re-examined 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment, and the changes of BCVA, PEDH, PEDA, PEDV, and CFT in the affected eyes before and after treatment were compared, and repeated measures analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis. ResultsAt 12 months after treatment, the PEDH, PEDA and PEDV of the affected eyes in the sPED group, fPED group and hPED group were significantly lower than those before treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The difference in the degree of improvement was -318.67±258.09 μm, -6.50±6.33 μm2, -1.95±1.78 μm3 in the hPED group; -119.31±224.13 μm, -0.86 ±5.00 μm2, -0.56±1.64 μm3 in the sPED group; fPED group were -53.93±92.51 μm, -0.76±2.54 μm2, -0.19±0.46 μm3. The improvement degree of the affected eyes in hPED group was significantly greater than that in sPED group and fPED group, and the difference was statistically significant (F=5.918, 6.029, 5.494; P<0.05). Compared with the BCVA and CFT before treatment, 12 months after treatment, the difference was statistically significant in the fPED group and the hPED group (P<0.05); there was no significant improvement in the sPED group (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the BCVA of the affected eyes in the three groups compared with those before treatment (F=0.817, 0.741, 0.848; P>0.05). ConclusionConbercept can effectively improve or stabilize the visual function and anatomical morphology of eyes with type 1 MNV in nAMD with sPED, fPED and hPED, among which the anatomical effect is better for hPED.
