CLINICAL TRIAL ENDPOINTS FOR OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY IN NEOVASCULAR AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION

To describe qualitative and quantitative optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography (OCTA) parameters for choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and their applicability as potential clinical trial endpoints.A review of current literature related to the topic of OCTA and AMD.There are a number of promising OCTA parameters that can be used to diagnose the presence of CNV and to monitor the activity and progression of the lesion, pre- and post-treatment morphological characteristics, CNV dimensions, and automated quantitative parameters such as vessel density.The OCTA parameters described in this review have promise for the future development of clinical trial endpoints, but require further validation before they can be widely used.
