As a clinical follow-up of the patients, the better corrected visual acuity (BCVA), degree of inflammation (measured from 1 to 4), the severity of the CC, Schirmer I test, IOP and TBUT were analyzed. The adverse events were also evaluated.Results: Ten eyes (6 patients) were evaluated, 50% corresponded to Stevens–Johnson Syndrome and 50% to ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid. The mean age was 59.7 ± 16.5 (39– 80) years, and 50% were women. Fifty per cent of the cases were initially considered severe CC, and 10% of the cases (one eye of one patient) were considered severe CC at the end of the treatment (p = 0.046). The initial degree of inflammation was 2 in 4 eyes, 3 in two eyes, and 4 in 4 eyes, and final inflammation degree was 1 in all cases (p = 0.004). Twenty per cent of the cases achieved stability in Phase I of the treatment with immunosafe PRGF, 70% with both Phases I and II, and only one case underwent Phase III to achieve stability. The IOP improved significantly (p = 0.027) though the BCVA, TBUT and Schirmer I test showed no significant changes. The follow-up time was 23.1 ± 6.7 (13.6– 30.3) months. No adverse effects were reported.Conclusion: Treatment with PRGF technology in its injectable and topical immunosafe formulations may be a novel alternative for the treatment of patients with CC, given its complement activity modulating effect, as well as its anti-inflammatory, antifibrotic and regenerative properties.Keywords: immunosafe plasma rich in growth factors, isPRGF, Stevens–Johnson syndrome, ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid, blood derivativesde la Sen-Corcuera BMontero-Iruzubieta JSánchez-Ávila RMOrive GAnitua ECaro-Magdaleno MMerayo-Lloves JDove Medical Pressarticleimmunosafe plasma rich in growth factors (isprgf)stevens-johnson syndromeocular mucous membrane pemphigoidblood derivativesOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 1619-1627 (2020) |
