Ranibizumab for Predominantly Classic Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration: Subgroup Analysis of First-year ANCHOR Results

Subgroup analysis of 12-month data from the ANCHOR study showed ranibizumab to be superior to PDT in all subgroups evaluated, and was consistent with the subgroup analysis of 24-month data from the other pivotal phase 3 study of ranibizumab (MARINA) in showing that the most important predictors of VA outcomes were, in decreasing order of impact, the patient's baseline VA score, CNV lesion size, and age.
