Progression and challenge of therapeutic strategies in neovascular age-related macular degeneration / 中华眼底病杂志

ABSTRACT

Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is the key characteristic of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD),and the effective therapy is intravitreal injection of anti vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents based on clinical and basic research.In the meantime the challenge is how to further improve the inhibiting effect for CNV and visual function of anti-VEGF treatment on nAMD.The new strategy and drug delivery devices for anti-VEGF treatment will optimize the clinical scheme.From bench to bedside,the research on targeted treatment of angiogenesis brings the bloom of nAMD medical therapy.
