About this study

Official title: Real-World, Long-Term Data Collection to Gain Clinical Insights Into Faricimab (FaReal Study)

The FaReal study aims to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, clinical insights and treatment patterns in patients treated with faricimab, in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) or diabetic macular edema (DME) in at least one eye, in real-world routine clinical practice over a 2-year patient follow-up period. Additionally, the FaReal study also aims to describe and evaluate health economic aspects of previous anti-VEGF treatments and current treatment with faricimab.

Being tested
Faricimab

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • FaricimabDrug
