摘 要:PURPOSE: To compare 1-year safety and efficacy of anecortave acetate 15 mg with photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin in patients eligible for initial PDT treatment. Design: Prospective, masked, randomized, multicenter, parallel group, active control, noninferiority clinical trial. Participants: Five hundred thirty patients with predominantly classic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration were randomized to treatment with either anecortave acetate 15 mg or PDT. Methods: In the anecortave acetate group, the drug was administered under the Tenon’s capsule as a periocular posterior juxtascleral depot (PJD) at the beginning of the study and at month 6. Before the first administration of anecortave acetate, patients in this treatment group received a sham PDT treatment, and sham PDT treatments were repeated every 3 months if there was evidence of leakage on fluorescein angiography (FA). Patients assigned to PDT received up to 4 PDT treatments at 3-month intervals, as needed based upon FA, and a sham PJD procedure at the beginning of the study and at month 6. Best-corrected visual acuity was determined at baseline and all follow-up visits. Safety data were regularly reviewed by an independent safety committee. Main Outcome Measure: Percent responders (patients losing <3 lines of vision) at month 12. Results: Percent responders in the anecortave acetate and PDT groups were 45%and 49%, respectively (not statistically different, P=0.43). The confidence interval (CI) for the difference ranged from -13.2%favoring PDT to+5.6%favoring anecortave acetate. The month 12 clinical outcome for anecortave acetate was improved in patients for whom reflux was controlled and who were treated within the 6-month treatment window (57%vs. 49%; 95%CI,-4.3%favoring PDT to+21.7%favoring anecortave acetate). No serious adverse events related to the study drug were reported in either treatment group. Conclusions: The safety and efficacy outcomes in this study demonstrate that the benefits ofPurpose: To compare 1 - year safety and efficacy of anecortave acetate 15 mg with photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin in patients eligible for initial PDT treatmenL Design: Prospective, masked, randomized, muhicenter, parallel group, active control, noninferiority clinical trial.
