Medico-economic Evaluation of Anti-VEGF Treatments in the Treatment of naïve Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD): a Model Adapted to the French Context

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness after 50 years in industrialized countries, compromising daily activities and reducing quality of life. And whose treatment is one of the first health expenditures. Since September 2015, Bevacizumab, which does not have marketing authorization in AMD, has been given a temporary recommendation for use. Studies in other countries have shown that bevacizumab is cost-effective in the treatment of AMD compared to other anti-VEGF therapies used.
