Wet-AMD Disease Understanding and Treatment Algorithm
Wet-AMD Overview
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of severe, irreversible blindness in developed countries worldwide, profoundly affecting the quality of life of affected individuals. With the increase in life expectancy bringing growth in the number of reported cases, it adds a significant burden on the health care systems with the expensive current standard of care. Wet-AMD is a type of AMD which is characterized by abrupt central vision loss caused by abnormal blood vessels that bleed or leak fluid which may swell and damage the macula. Wet-AMD also referred to as neovascular AMD, accounts for roughly 10% of AMD cases, but almost 90% of AMD-related central vision loss. Although 80 percent of the patients have non-neovascular, or atrophic AMD, the neovascular form of the disease is responsible for nearly 90 percent of the severe, central visual acuity loss associated with AMD.
AMD’s progression leads to loss of central vision, which adversely affects the quality of life. Although AMD’s exact functional pathogenesis is not fully understood, there have been recent improvements in genetic technologies leading to the identification of various polymorphisms that have shown to harbor unique associations with AMD.

Wet-AMD Diagnosis and Treatment
It covers the details of conventional and current medical therapies and diagnosis available in the Wet-AMD market for the treatment of the condition. It also provides the country-wise treatment guidelines and algorithms across the United States, Europe, and Japan.
The DelveInsight Wet-AMD market report gives a thorough understanding of WET-AMD symptoms by including details such as disease definition, symptoms, causes, physiology, and diagnosis. It also provides WET-AMD symptoms of treatment algorithms and treatment guidelines for WET-AMD symptoms in the US, Europe, and Japan.
Diagnosing AMD involves differentiating macular aging changes from degenerative abnormalities that threaten, or are affecting vision. In particular, the identification of wet AMD is important, as timely and appropriate treatment can save sight. Patients with wet AMD often have symptoms that can alert healthcare professionals to a macular problem rather than non-specific “blurry vision.” Those with the skills and equipment to examine the macula can also find signs suggestive of wet AMD. AMD’s clinical diagnosis is typically made during the retina examination by an eye care provider. Key features include deep RPE pigmentary changes, sub-retinal fluid or fibrosis, macular edema, and hemorrhage or exudate.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin has been tested in several prospective studies for the treatment of various subtypes of exudative, subfoveal AMD. In 2000, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved PDT with verteporfin for the treatment of predominantly classic, subfoveal choroidal neovascularization. However, due to several limitations, an alternate treatment regime was needed. Thus the development of anti-VEGF substances to treat wet AMD can be considered a milestone. Several anti-VEGF therapies are now available in the market which has significantly improved patient’s lives. The major players include Lucentis, Eylea, Bevacizumab, and Beovu.
Wet-AMD Epidemiology

Wet-AMD Emerging Drug
Faricimab: Roche
Faricimab (RG7716), the first bispecific antibody developed with CrossMab technology, is designed specifically for intravitreal use to simultaneously bind to and neutralize both angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) and VEGF-A with high potency and specificity. In nAMD, Ang-2 works synergistically with VEGF to drive pathologic blood vessel permeability and destabilization, abnormal blood vessel growth, and fluid leakage, which contribute to vision loss. Ang-2 also plays a vital role in multiple aspects of inflammation in neovascular Age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). Currently, two Phase III clinical trials are evaluating faricimab for the treatment of nAMD.
KSI-301: Kodiak Sciences
KSI-301 is a novel anti-VEGF biologic designed to rapidly inhibit VEGF and provide extended durability of action to reduce the burden of frequent anti-VEGF injections. Delivering potent and sustained VEGF inhibition enables patient compliance, results in long-term efficacy, and improves visual acuity outcomes.

The calculated market data are presented with relevant tables and graphs to give a clear view of the market at first sight.
According to DelveInsight, the Wet-AMD market in 7MM is expected to grow in the study period 2017–2030.
Past studies have found that just one year after diagnosis, less than 15 percent of patients given this therapy alone retain 20/40 vision, and up to 40 percent decline to 20/200 vision. However, the advances in medical research have identified the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) as a key pathophysiological factor in the development of neovascular AMD, with an essential role in angiogenesis, vascular permeability, and inflammatory response. The introduction of anti-VEGF intravitreal injections has opened a new therapeutic window in the management of wet AMD, thus efficiently blocking the pathophysiological process of AMD, with a restoration of retinal morphology and the maintenance of its function. In the past years, anti-VEGF injections have become the standard treatment for wet AMD, accounting for better results than the previous choices, such as photodynamic therapy (PDT) and laser photocoagulation.

The Patient Assistance Program may help eligible patients get EYLEA free of charge if you are uninsured or if their health plan does not cover EYLEA. To qualify, one must: - a) Be uninsured or lack coverage for EYLEA, b) Live in the United States or its territories or possessions, c) Show financial need (based on total annual household adjusted gross income)
Medicare Part B covers ophthalmology services that are reasonable and necessary for diagnosing or treating illness or injury or improving a malformed body member’s functioning. Ophthalmology services include Eylea and Lucentis’s intravitreal injections to treat eye diseases such as wet age-related macular degeneration. Medicare pays for an intravitreal injection (which is considered a minor surgery) as part of a global surgical package that includes the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative services routinely performed by the physician. Medicare pays for Eylea and Lucentis separately from the intravitreal injection. Chapter 12, section 40.1 of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ Medicare Claims Processing Manual states that separate payment can be made for other services provided by the same physician on the same day as the global surgery if the services are significant and separately identifiable or unrelated to the surgery.
