To compare the efficacy and safety of intravitreal Aflibercept monotherapy with the efficacy and safety of combined treatment with Aflibercept associated with standard photodynamic therapy (PDT) with Verteporfin in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) in a proof concept study and to identify genetic biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment response of PCV in Caucasians.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of intravitreal Aflibercept monotherapy with the efficacy and safety of combined treatment with Aflibercept plus standard photodynamic therapy (PDT) with Verteporfin in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV).
