Скачать или смотреть Dolly Chang, MD, PhD: Importance of Early Drying on Outcomes in DME

Greater reductions in intraretinal fluid (IRF) volumes within 1 month were linked to improvements in one-year anatomical and visual outcomes among patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).

The exploratory analysis, presented at the 2024 Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) meeting, assessed eyes with DME using a deep learning-based segmentation model

In an interview with HCPLive, investigator Dolly Chang, MD, PhD, Genentech Research and Early Development, noted that the patients with ≥50% volume reduction in IRF exhibited better drying at the one-year mark, with greater reductions in total retinal thickness, inner retinal thickness, and retinal fluid.

“I think what we’re really excited to learn from this paper is that the early drying and better response to the first dose of therapy seems to be strongly associated with better vision and anatomical outcomes at one year,” Chang said.
