WAILEA, Hawaii — In this Healio Video Perspective from Retina 2024, Ferhina S. Ali, MD, MPH, presents real-world data from the FARETINA-AMD study investigating faricimab for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
“What we saw with our patients that were getting faricimab over our study period, which was soon after drug approval, is that most of these patients were not treatment naïve and that they had been on treatment prior. Most of them had been on treatment with aflibercept and they were switched to faricimab treatment,” she said. “We saw good vision stability with the use of faricimab and we also saw that the treatment intervals were rapidly extended early on in the treatment course for these patients.”
