The angiopoietin/Tie2 pathway is an attractive therapeutic target for the management of retinal and choroidal vascular diseases, as it has been identified to play a role in vascular permeability and angiogenesis within the eye. Several therapies targeting this pathway have been investigated, and the FDA recently approved the first agent that inhibits both the angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A pathways for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and diabetic macular edema (DME). Dual inhibition of these 2 pathways has the potential to enhance visual acuity outcomes while lowering the treatment burden. In this podcast, Dr. Carl Regillo and Dr. Nancy Holekamp discuss the efficacy and safety of therapies targeting Ang-2 in DME.

Retinal vein occlusions (RVOs) are the second most common retinal vascular disorder after diabetic retinopathy. The early and accurate diagnosis of RVO is paramount so that therapy can be initiated in a timely manner to prevent vision decline. Newer imaging technologies integrated into current diagnostic algorithms are aiding in the diagnosis of RVO and guiding therapy. Further, significant visual and anatomic improvements have been demonstrated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies in patients with central or branch RVO-related macular edema, and refinement of treatment protocols have the potential to further enhance outcomes as well as reduce treatment burden. In this curbside consult, Drs. Carl Regillo and Christina Weng assess the effect of treating RVO early in its course for the improvement of visual outcomes.

Intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment regimens have provided significant improvements to long-term visual outcomes in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). However, some patients do not receive an optimal response with current anti-VEGF therapies, while poor adherence due to treatment burden remains a significant problem. Continuing advances in the refinement of dosing frequency protocols, as well as the development of therapies and devices that promise to extend dosing intervals, have the potential to overcome treatment burden, further enhancing long-term visual outcomes. In this podcast, Dr. Arshad Khanani and Dr. Peter Kaiser interpret the latest clinical trial data of new and emerging treatments for nAMD.
