RETINAL VEIN OCCLUSION (BRANCH RVO OR CENTRAL RVO)
Create a future you and your patients could look forward to with EYLEA 2 mg in RVO1
EYLEA 2 mg is indicated for adults for the treatment of visual impairment due to macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (branch RVO or central RVO).1
Sudden vision loss due to RVO could have a profound long-term impact on patients’ lives. Choosing EYLEA 2 mg could benefit your RVO patients:
EYLEA 2 mg can deliver rapid and maintained vision gains from baseline in BRVO and CRVO2−8
- Real-world evidence from Moorfields Eye Hospital complements CRVO RCTs9
With EYLEA 2 mg, your RVO patients could look forward to rapid and maintained vision gains from baseline2–8
Click to see how RCT outcomes support the early use of EYLEA 2 mg in your RVO patients:
EYLEA 2 mg was associated with rapid vision gains from baseline, maintained to Week 52 in BRVO2,3
VIBRANT
BRVO patients on EYLEA 2 mg saw rapid vision gains from baseline, maintained to Week 52.2,3

GALILEO and COPERNICUS
Early treatment with EYLEA 2 mg was associated with rapid and maintained vision gains from baseline in CRVO.4,5
GALILEO

Adapted from Ogura Y, et al. 2014.
No direct cross-trial comparisons can be made between GALILEO and COPERNICUS due to differing study designs.
COPERNICUS

CENTERA
CENTERA shows CRVO patients can achieve clinically meaningful vision gains vs. baseline on a T&E regimen.6*

Adapted from Korobelnik J-F, et al. 2021.
*Following 4 x weekly injections until disease stability or until Week 20, whichever occurred first.
In CENTERA, CRVO patients achieved rapid vision gains from baseline, maintained to Week 76 with EYLEA 2 mg T&E dosing.6*

*Following 4 x weekly injections until disease stability or until Week 20, whichever occurred first.
LEAVO
EYLEA 2 mg delivered rapid and maintained vision gains from baseline, with significantly fewer injections vs. ranibizumab in CRVO.7,8

Adapted from Hykin P, et al. 2019.
No significant difference in BCVA letters gained between treatment groups at Week 52: treatment difference 0.7% (95% CI: -11.0, 12.5)
The safety profile of EYLEA 2 mg was evaluated in clinical trials for up to 52 weeks (VIBRANT), 76 weeks (GALILEO and CENTERA) and 100 weeks (COPERNICUS and LEAVO)2−7,17
EYLEA 2 mg was well tolerated across studies, with the most common AEs typically associated with intravitreal injections or the underlying disease3−6,17
INJECTION NUMBERS
In LEAVO and Casselholm de Salles, et al, EYLEA 2 mg could deliver non-inferior vision gains from baseline with fewer injections vs. ranibizumab in CRVO.7,10

*Statistically significant difference in mean number of injections between EYLEA 2 mg and ranibizumab at all three timepoints assessed: Week 24 (mean difference: -0.4, 95% CI:-0.6, -0.2); Week 52 (-1.1; 95% CI: -1.6, -0.5): Week 100 (-1.9, 95% CI: -2.9, -0.8).7
Real-world evidence
Look forward to real-world results – EYLEA 2 mg delivers RCT-like outcomes for your RVO patients in clinical practice.9
Real-world evidence from Moorfields Eye Hospital complements RCT results in CRVO.9
- Vision gains achieved vs. baseline with EYLEA 2 mg were maintained using a treat-and-extend regimen after 3 initial monthly doses in patients with CRVO (n=33)9
Mean vision gains from baseline9
