Baseline optical coherence tomography (OCT) and visual acuity (VA) data, and at least 6 months of clinical follow up after 3 initial monthly injections of bevacizumab or ranibizumab were required for inclusion. Based on OCT and VA, patients were categorized into two possible clinical outcomes: (a) responders and (b) non-responders. DNA was extracted from saliva and genotyped for candidate SNPs in the VEGFA, LOC387715, and CFH genes. Clinical outcomes were statistically compared to patient genotypes.Results: 101 patients were recruited, and one eye from each patient was included in the analysis. 97% of samples were successfully genotyped for all SNPs. We found a statistically significant association between the LOC387715 A69S TT genotype and outcome based on OCT.Conclusion: Genetic variation may be associated with outcome in patients receiving anti-VEGF therapy.Keywords: age related macular degeneration, ARMS2, bevacizumab, complement factor H (CFH), LOC387715, ranibizumab, single nucleotide polymorphisms, vascular endothelial growth factorKitchens JWKassem NWood WStone TWIsernhagen RWood EHancock BARadovich MWaymire JLi LSchneider BPDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2013, Iss default, Pp 1987-1993 (2013) |
