Clinical trial
Intravitreal Aflibercept for Diabetic Macular Edema: 148-Week Results from the VISTA and VIVID Studies.
Heier JS, Korobelnik JF, Brown DM, Schmidt-Erfurth U, Do DV, Midena E, Boyer DS, Terasaki H, Kaiser PK, Marcus DM, Nguyen QD, Jaffe GJ, Slakter JS, Simader C, Soo Y, Schmelter T, Vitti R, Berliner AJ, Zeitz O, Metzig C, Holz FG.
Main finding: Intravitreal Alifbercept was superior to laser through 148 weeks, with similar efficacy in the 2q4 and 2q8 dosing groups.
- Purpose: To compare efficacy and safety of 2 dosing regimens of intravitreal aflibercept injection with macular laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular edema
- Study type: Randomized controlled trial
- Condition: Diabetic Macular Edema
Participants: Type 1 or 2 DM, DME, BCVA 20/40–20/320
- n=872
Intervention:
Groups:
Group 1: Aflibercept 2mg every 4 weeks (2q4)
Group 2: Aflibercept 2mg every 8weeks (2q8)
Group 3: Laser (macular)
Visual acuity improvements observed with both IAI regimens (over laser control) at weeks 52 and 100 were maintained at week 148.
Outcomes | Group | Aflibercept 2q4 | Aflibercept 2q8 | Laser |
---|---|---|---|---|
Mean BCVA gain | VISTA | +10.4 | +10.5 | +1.4 |
VIVID | +10.3 | +11.7 | +1.6 | |
Gain ≥ 15 letters from baseline (Proportion of patients) | VISTA | 42.9% | 35.8% | 13.6% |
VIVID | 41.2% | 42.2% | 18.9% |

Intravitreal Aflibercept for Diabetic Macular Edema: 100-Week Results From the VISTA and VIVID Studies.
Brown DM, Schmidt-Erfurth U, Do DV, Holz FG, Boyer DS, Midena E, Heier JS, Terasaki H, Kaiser PK, Marcus DM, Nguyen QD, Jaffe GJ, Slakter JS, Simader C, Soo Y, Schmelter T, Yancopoulos GD, Stahl N, Vitti R, Berliner AJ, Zeitz O, Metzig C, Korobelnik JF.
Main finding: The 52-week visual and anatomic superiority of intravitreal Aflibercept over laser control was sustained through week 100, with similar efficacy in the 4-weekly and 8-weekly groups.
