BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To determine the effectiveness of aflibercept in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
PATIENTS AND METHODS: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of proportions from the literature in PubMed and Cochrane Library using search terms related to the use of aflibercept in ROP. Studies in non-preterm infants or that did not use aflibercept as the initial treatment were excluded. Risk of bias was assessed by the ROBINS-I (Risk Of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions) tool.
RESULTS: We identified six case series. Collectively, 218 eyes were treated with aflibercept for ROP. We found an average 97% (95% confidence interval [CI], 93% to 99%) regression rate with aflibercept and an average 16% (95% CI, 5% to 41%) recurrence rate. With the exception of one outlier study, these numbers are similar to previous reports using anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents in ROP.
CONCLUSIONS: Aflibercept holds promise for use in ROP and has been demonstrated to be efficacious in six case series. Randomized, controlled clinical trials appear warranted to compare aflibercept with other anti-VEGF agents. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging. 2021;52:673-681.].
