Das Port-Delivery-System (PDS) mit Ranibizumab ist ein perma­nentes, nachfüllbares Augenimplantat in der Größe eines Reiskorns, das so konzipiert ist, dass es im Laufe der Zeit kontinuierlich Ranibizumab in das Auge abgibt. Ranibizumab ist ein Inhibitor des vaskulären endothelialen Wachstumsfaktors (VEGF), das eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Bildung neuer Blutgefäße und Gefäßleckagen spielt.

Current treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration involves periodic intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF medication, creating a burden to patients and physicians, resulting in nonadherence to recommended dosing schedules. The Port Delivery System with ranibizumab offers a long-term solution that involves implantation of a device into the pars plana and provides continuous release of anti-VEGF medication into the vitreous, thus requiring fewer office visits. The Port Delivery System has demonstrated comparable visual and anatomic outcomes to monthly injections and shows promise in alleviating the patient burden in the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration, making possible better long-term real-world visual outcomes.
