Abstract:With the advent of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs, the treatment of neovascular senile macular degeneration has been greatly developed. However, there are still some patients who have poor effect after long-term treatment with the same drug, which may be related to drug resistance and rapid drug resistance response. At this time, drug replacement is a feasible option. As a representative of fusion protein drugs, Aphercept has the advantages of high affinity binding to vascular endothelial growth factor and multiple targets. This article reviews the current research status of switching to Aphercept in patients with refractory neovascular senile macular degeneration, in order to provide ideas for the treatment of this disease.
