Aflibercept is the most recently developed VEGF inhibitor with a recombinant fusion protein consisting of human VEGF receptor extracellular domains from receptors 1 and 2 (VEGFR1 and VEGFR2) fused to the Fc domain of human IgG. Although both ranibizumab and bevacizumab have been shown not to have harmful effects on corneal endothelium, the effect of intravitreal aflibercept on human corneal endothelium has not been reported so far. Considering the functional importance of the corneal endothelium, particularly in aged population, the present study was designed to evaluate the in vivo toxicity of aflibercept on human corneal endothelial cells in patients with neovascular AMD.
