В проспективном исследовании приняли участие 29 пациентов (16 мужчин, 13 женщин) в возрасте от 24 лет до 81 года, из которых 20 пациентов получали монотерапию ранибизумабом, 3 — монотерапию афлиберцептом, 6 — комбинацию обоих препаратов в указанном модифицированном режиме, который предусматривал возможность завершения анти-VEGF терапии по достижении ремиссии МО. Медиана длительности наблюдения составила 36 мес [24; 60].</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. Полная резорбция МО достигнута у 27 (93,1 %) из 29 пациентов к концу 2-го года, у двух оставшихся пациентов — на 3-м году лечения; 18 (62,1 %) пациентов завершили анти-VEGF терапию в первые полгода, получив 3–5 ежемесячных инъекций без рецидива МО на протяжении последующих 21–22 мес наблюдения; 11 пациентов, продолживших лечение, получили в среднем 7,09 ± 1,14, 5,09 ± 2,34 и 2,18 ± 2,36 инъекции с индивидуальным интервалом на 1, 2 и 3-м году соответственно. В целом 22 (75,9 %) пациента завершили анти-VEGF терапию и были переведены под наблюдение к концу 2-го года и еще 5 (17,2 %) пациентов — на 3-м году исследования. На фоне лечения максимальная корригированная острота зрения возросла от исходной 0,15 [0,07; 0,3] до 0,7 [0,4; 0,9] к концу 1-го года (Z = ‑4,69; p = 0,0000027) и сохранялась стабильной до конца срока наблюдения.</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Анти-VEGF терапия в модифицированном режиме «лечить и увеличивать интервал» является эффективным методом лечения МО, вызванного окклюзией центральной вены сетчатки. Данный подход приводит к раннему, существенному и стойкому улучшению зрительных функций и позволяет достичь полной резорбции МО у большинства пациентов при минимальном количестве инъекций.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Purpose</title><p>Purpose. To evaluate long-term results of anti-VEGF therapy performed in a modified “treat-and-extend” regimen in macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion.</p></sec><sec><title>Material and methods</title><p>Material and methods. The prospective study included 29 patients (16 men and 13 women) aged 24–81. The median follow-up period was 36 months [24; 60]. 20 patients underwent ranibizumab monotherapy, 3 patients – aflibercept monotherapy, while 6 patients received a combination of the two drugs following the modified regimen, which allowed terminating anti-VEGF treatment when macular edema remission was achieved.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. Macular edema completely resolved in 27 out of 29 patients (93.1%) by the end of the second year, while the remaining 2 patients showed the complete resolution during the third year. 18 patients (62.1%) could terminate anti-VEGF therapy during the first 6 months, whereupon they received 3 to 5 monthly injections with no macular edema relapse over the subsequent 21–22 months of the follow-up. 11 patients continued anti-VEGF therapy and averagely received 7.09 ± 1.14, 5.09 ± 2.34 and 2.18 ± 2.36 injections with individually determined intervals at years 1, 2 and 3, respectively. On the whole, 22 patients (75.9%) terminated anti-VEGF therapy and transferred to drugless observation at the end of year 2, while 5 other patients (17.2%) terminated anti-VEGF therapy during year 3. As a result of the treatment, the maximum BCVA improved from 0.15 [0.07; 0.3] to 0.7 [0.4; 0.9] by the end of year 1 (Z = -4.69; p = 0.0000027) and remained stable during the rest of the follow-up.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. Anti-VEGF therapy in modified treat-and-extend regimen is effective in macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion. and results in a significant and sustainable visual acuity gain and complete resolution of macular edema with a minimum quantity of injections in most patients.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>окклюзия центральной вены сетчатки</kwd><kwd>окклюзия ретинальных вен</kwd><kwd>макулярный отек</kwd><kwd>анти-VEGF терапия</kwd><kwd>ранибизумаб</kwd><kwd>афлиберцепт</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>central retinal vein occlusion</kwd><kwd>retinal vein occlusion</kwd><kwd>macular edema</kwd><kwd>anti-VEGF therapy</kwd><kwd>treat-and-extend</kwd><kwd>ranibizumab</kwd><kwd>aflibercept</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Klein R, Moss SE, Meuer SM, Klein BE.
