Abstract

See full text

Provided in part herein are genetic variations (e.g., single nucleotide polymorphisms) associated with a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) suppression response to an anti-VEGF agent for treatment of a macular degeneration disorder (e.g., age-related macular degeneration (AMD)). Also provided herein are methods for determining a genotype that includes such genetic variations, methods for predicting a VEGF suppression response for a subject according to a genotype, and methods for selecting a treatment suitable for treating a macular degeneration disorder (e.g., wet AMD) for a subject in need thereof according to a genotype.
