PURPOSE: Limited data is available on treatment satisfaction with the management of wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) among patients in Italy. In this cross-sectional real-world study, treatment satisfaction with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGFs) was assessed in patients with wAMD in Italy.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was a non-interventional, cross-sectional survey involving patients with wAMD receiving anti-VEGFs. The survey was administered through a virtual assistant via phone. Patients' treatment satisfaction was assessed using a newly developed Novartis Tailored Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (NVS TTSQ) and the validated Macular Disease Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (MacTSQ).
RESULTS: Overall, 154 evaluable patients were enrolled in 5 centers across Italy. The mean (SD) age of the patients was 76.8 years (7.01). Overall treatment satisfaction score assessed by NVS TTSQ was 40.50 (7.11), with a mean of 9.97 (1.84) on the information domain and 22.98 (4.57) on the unmet need domain. Patients were satisfied with diagnosis communication (4.99 [1.30]), information provided on treatment administration (4.58 [1.49], range 0-6), the waiting room (4.40 [1.43]), and management of visits and injections at the center (5.14 [1.12]), general management of maculopathy at the center (5.22 [1.01]). Patients were not satisfied with their independence in terms of disease management (2.56 [2.45]); they would like additional information about the disease (5.38 [1.03]) and to discuss the injection procedures (4.02 [1.94]) with already-treated patients. The overall treatment satisfaction score on MacTSQ scale was 55.84 (10.13).
CONCLUSION: Patients with wAMD are satisfied with the overall management of their disease in Italy. However, patients would like to have more information on prognosis and management of the disease.
