Predicting visual outcomes following anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatment for diabetic macular edema
Copyright © 2023 Copyright: © 2023 Indian Journal of Ophthalmology..
PURPOSE: To assess the utility of pre-defined imaging biomarkers on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) following anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy in determining visual and anatomical outcomes.
METHODS: In this prospective, non-randomized, and interventional study, 17 patients with treatment-naive DME were included. OCT biomarkers [size/reflectivity of cysts, disorganization of retinal inner layers, integrity of ellipsoid zone or external limiting membrane, subfoveal serous retinal detachment, hyper-reflective foci (HRF)] and OCTA [vascular density (VD), foveal avascular zone (FAZ), and total micro-aneurysms in superficial capillary plexus and deep capillary plexus (DCP)] were analyzed at baseline and after three monthly intravitreal anti-VEGF injections. Response was defined as a decrease of 10% or more in central macular thickness from the baseline after three injections.
RESULTS: 13/17 (76.47%) patients were categorized as responders to anti-VEGF therapy. Non-responders had significantly greater hyper-reflectivity of cysts (P = 0.015), larger cystic spaces (P = 0.023), and an increased number of HRF (P = 0.04) at baseline. On OCTA, non-responders showed larger FAZ in DCP (1.35 ± 0.21 versus 1.14 ± 0.28 mm2) (P = 0.042) and lower VD (61.17 ± 0.45 versus 62.73 ± 3.32) in DCP at baseline. At 3 months, the VD increased in responders (63.10 ± 3.42) compared to a decrease in non-responders (60.82 ± 1.13) (P = 0.032).
CONCLUSIONS: Non-responders show a higher number of micro-aneurysms, larger FAZ, and lower VD in the DCP on OCTA and higher cyst hyper-reflectivity and HRF and larger cystic spaces on OCT imaging.
