Narrative
02 November 2022
Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC)
The Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee has agreed a Wet Age Related Macular Degeneration (wet-AMD) treatment pathway attached below for information.
PLEASE NOTE: The most cost-effective anti-VEGF treatment is biosimilar ranibizumab which will be counted as a ‘free switch’ for patients where monthly injections is clinically appropriate.
06 July 2022
Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC)
The Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee approve the increased access to THREE switches for existing NICE approved anti-VEGF treatments to optimise response.
N.B Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee DO NOT SUPPORT dose intensification (injections every 4 weeks) of aflibercept, as per change in licence since NICE guidance was published
Blueteq forms for initiation and continuation will be completed by retinal specialists in secondary care.
03 December 2014
Surrey & North West Sussex Area Prescribing Committee (formerly Prescribing Clinical Network)
The PCN supports the use of both aflibercept and ranibizumab as treatment options for wet AMD in patients who meet the specified NICE criteria (NICE TA 294 criteria for aflibercept and NICE TA 155 criteria for ranibizumab).
