In AVONELLE-X, patients with wet AMD who received Vabysmo (faricimab-svoa, Genentech) were extended from 2 years to 4 years, with approximately 80% of patients extending treatment beyond 12 weeks and about 50% extending beyond 20 weeks. The majority of patients maintained vision and central subfield thickness without any safety issues.
