Exclusion criteria: - Patients without scar, fibrosis, or atrophy involving the center of the fovea in the study eye. - Patients without RPE rip/tear involving the central fovea in the study eye. - Patients with prior treatment with PDT - Patients with prior treatment with anti-VEGF or steroids therapy in the study eye within 28 days of baseline - Patients with intraocular surgery (including cataract surgery) in the study eye within 2 months preceding baseline - Patients with history of vitrectomy surgery, submacular surgery, or other surgical intervention for AMD in the study eye - Patients with active intraocular inflammation in the study eye - Patients with history of cerebral vascular accident, myocardial infarction, transient ischemic attacks within 3 months of study enrollment. - Patients unable to undergo fluorescein angiography or fundus photography because of uncontrolled allergies - Potentially women who plan to become pregnant, are pregnant and / or breastfeeding, or who do not wish to use effective contraception (hormonal contraceptives [implementation, patches, oral], and double barrier methods [any double combination: IUDs, male or female prophylactics with spermicidal jelly, diaphragm, contraceptive sponge, cervical cap]). - Patients who are participating in another simultaneous interventional clinical trial
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To study the efficacy of aflibercept treatment of wAMD patients without optimal response to anti VEGF-A therapy, in terms of the percentage of patients with no fluid on OCT after loading dose (intra or subretinal) of aflibercept (3 initial monthly doses).;Secondary Objective: - Mean change in visual acuity (BCVA) after loading dose at 12 weeks - Mean change in OCT central foveal thickness after loading dose at 12 weeks - Anatomic outcomes maintained during the treatment (administrated every 8 weeks) at week 40, in central retinal thickness and VA outcomes maintained during the treatment (administrated every 8 weeks) at week 40, in terms of BCVA. - Time to resolution of any intra/subretinal fluid on OCT - Describe safety of aflibercept in this studied population according to ocular and non-ocular adverse events (AE), characterized by: type, frequency, relation and severity, during the 40 weeks.;Primary end point(s): Percentage of patients with no fluid on OCT after 3 loading doses of VEGF Trap-Eye (week 12).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: In week 12 after 3 loading doses of VEGF Trap-Eye. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - Mean change in BCVA at week 12 measured by ETDRS Scale - Percentage of patients with no fluid on OCT at week 40. - Mean change in BCVA at week 40 measured by ETDRS Scale - Time to no fluid on OCT;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 12 and week 40 depending of the end point.
