ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents have a variable effect on patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) that has been attributed to several causes, including genetic factors. We evaluated the effects of Complement Factor H (CFH) rs1061170/Y402H polymorphism on the response to anti-VEGF therapy among AMD patients.METHODS:
PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar were used for a literature search. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated to assess the effects of CFH Y402H polymorphism on the response to anti-VEGF therapy in AMD. I2 was used to present the amount of heterogeneity. We used STATA version 14.0 software.RESULTS:
Twenty-five papers reporting data for 4,681 patients were included in this study. Better response to anti-VEGF therapy was seen in T over C (OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.04-1.50), TT over CC (OR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.06-2.4), and TT + TC over CC (OR = 1.68, 95% CI = 1.23-2.28) genotypes. There was no significant difference in the three other genetic models (TT vs. TC, TT vs. TC + CC, TC vs. TT + CC). In Asians, no significant difference was observed in all six genetic models. Ranibizumab and bevacizumab had similar efficacy; however, conbercept was more effective in homozygous genotypes. The literature indicated that TT and TC genotypes and T allele were associated with a better functional response, while the CC genotype and C alleles had a better anatomical response. The combination of risk alleles in ARMS2 A69S (rs10490924), VEGF-A (rs699947), and VEGF-A (rs833069) with Y420H is a predictor of non-respondents.CONCLUSION:
In patients with AMD, the CFH Y402H is a predictor of the response to anti-VEGF agents and should be considered in the treatment plan.Palabras clave
