Narrative
02 November 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. A Diabetic Macular Oedema (DMO) treatment pathway was also agreed by the APC and is attached  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.

07 October 2015
Surrey & North West Sussex Area Prescribing Committee (formerly Prescribing Clinical Network)
NICE TA346 was published in July 2015 and the PCN recommends Aflibercept as a treatment option in the treatment of Diabetic Macular Oedema. A treatment pathway will be developed in consultation with local ophthalmologists and will be brought to a future PCN for consideration
