Retinal Vein Occlusion• Retinal vein occlusion is the second
most common cause of visual loss due to retinal vascular disease1-3
• Two major types:– Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO)– Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO)
• BRVO is the most common3
– Five-year incidence of 0.6% (21/3558) for BRVO and 0.2% (7/3593) for CRVO3
• Persistent macular edema causes VA loss

Clinical Trials and Venous Occlusive Diseases
• Laser studies– 1980s Branch Vein Occlusion Study (BVOS)
– 1990s Central Vein Occlusion Study (CVOS)
• 2009 Steroid studies– SCORE Study
– Ozurdex Trials
• 2010 Anti-VEGF Ranibizumab studies– BRAVO and CRUISE

BRVO Trial
After month 12 and through month 36, mean VA improvement was greatest in the SC group.
SCORE BRVO ConclusionSCORE BRVO Conclusion
• The SCORE-BRVO trial results support grid laser as the SC treatment for macular edema secondary to BRVO because:
– Similar efficacy in all 3 treatment arms up to month 12– Improved efficacy for laser beyond month 12– Superior safety profile of SC over 1-mg and 4-mg TA

CRVO Trial
• Both triamcinolone groups were superior to the observation group for VA at 12 months
• Visual benefit as early as 4 months • Visual benefit continued to 24 months• The 1-mg dose has a safety profile superior
to that of the 4-mg dose and similar to observation

OZURDEX™ (dexamethasone intravitreal implant)
• OZURDEX™ is preloaded into a sterile, single-use, specially designed applicator to facilitate injection of implant directly into the vitreous
Applicator and Extruded Implant (Not Shown Actual Size)
• Injectable, biodegradable intravitreal implant contains 0.7 mg (700 μg) dexamethasone in the NOVADUR™ solid polymer drug delivery system (preservative-free).
• Poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) PLGA biodegradable polymer matrix, which slowly degrades to lactic acid and glycolic acid as dexamethasone is gradually released.

Ozurdex Trials Conclusions
• DEX groups’ time to gain 15 letters was significantly shorter than sham eyes through day 90
• Mean change in BCVA was statistically:
– Better for DEX groups for BRVO through day 180
– Better for DEX groups for CRVO through day 90
• Persistence of efficacy in 21% BRVO; 17% CRVO at month 12 required only 1 Rx
Anti-VEGF Trials
• Ranibizumab (Lucentis)
– BRAVO and CRUISE
• Afilbercept (VEGF-Trap eye, Regeneron)
– Galileo and Copernicus
– Results pending

CRVO Summary
• CRVO treatment options– Steroids beneficial in phase 3 studies
SCORE Study: IVTA vs observation
OZURDEX Trials: dexamethasone vs sham
