摘要

Background

This analysis evaluated aqueous humour (AH) interleukin (IL)-6 concentrations and the association between AH IL-6 and visual outcomes in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) or diabetic macular oedema (DMO) receiving anti–vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) monotherapy.

Methods

Post hoc analysis of the multicentre, double-masked, randomised HARBOR (NCT00891735) and READ-3 (NCT01077401) trials. HARBOR enrolled treatment-naïve nAMD patients. READ-3 enrolled treatment-naïve/previously treated DMO patients. HARBOR patients received ranibizumab 0.5 or 2.0 mg monthly or as needed; AH samples were collected at month 2, after two previous intravitreal injections. READ-3 patients received ranibizumab 0.5 or 2.0 mg as needed; AH samples were collected at baseline and months 3, 6, 9, and 12. Main outcome measure: association between AH IL-6 concentrations and month 24 best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA).

Results

In both trials (HARBOR, N = 36; READ-3, N = 137), patients with higher AH IL-6 concentrations had worse visual outcomes. HARBOR patients with low AH IL-6 concentrations at month 2 had a mean (95% CI) BCVA change at month 24 of +2.9 (−2.6, 8.3) letters, whereas patients with high AH concentrations had a mean (95% CI) BCVA change of −9.0 (−22.7, 4.7) letters. READ-3 patients with low AH concentrations at baseline had a mean (95% CI) BCVA change at month 12 of +9.3 (7.4, 11.3) letters, whereas patients with high AH concentrations had a mean (95% CI) BCVA change of +5.6 (2.2, 9.1) letters.

Conclusions

Higher IL-6 AH concentrations may predict suboptimal visual responses to anti–VEGF monotherapy in patients with nAMD/DMO.
