Central retinal vein occlusion occurs when the main vessel that provides blood drainage becomes blocked. Blood and fluid then spills out onto the retina, causing the retina to swell and thicken. the swelling of the retina is called macular edema and can cause distortion or loss of vision.

Michael Ip, MD

Michael ip, MD, anD ScORe2: Stamina Assures Treatment Decisions

for CRVO

In May 2017, when the results of the SCORE2 clinical research trial were revealed in an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), readers could have interpreted the results as straightforward research showing a similar effect of two different drugs on a serious vision disorder called central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).

Doheny-UCLA’s Dr. Michael Ip and his more

than 1,000 co-researchers and study participants

would say loud and clear that the research was

anything but simple. According to Dr. Ip, “It

took us tens of 1,000s of hours, was funded for

over $10,000,000, totaled about seven years from

conception to publication, and required unflagging

stamina.”

effectiveness of two different drugs for treating

central retinal vein occlusion.

Retinal vein occlusion (RVO), of which CRVO

is one form, is a common eye disorder often

related to hypertension or diabetes. It occurs

in an estimated 16 million adults in the US,

Europe, Asia, and Australia alone. Treatment is

geared toward preventing swelling in the retina’s

vision-sensitive macula. The swelling is caused

by fluid leaking from obstructed retinal veins.

This swelling, called macular edema, can lead to a

serious loss of visual acuity.

“We enrolled 362 patients with CRVO-related

macular edema,” says Dr. Ip. The patients were

recruited from a network of 66 different hospitals,

medical offices, and clinics across the country. “It

was quite an organizational feat.”

the drugs for coMParisonThe SCORE2 drugs for “head-to-head

comparison” for treating CRVO go by the unwieldy

names of bevacizumab, known by its brand name

Avastin, and aflibercept, or Eylea.

Only one of the drugs, Eylea, is FDA-approved

for treatment of CRVO-related macular edema.

And yet many doctors prescribe Avastin instead

of Eylea, because, in their experience, it can also

reduce macular edema, and at a more amenable

price—approximately $1,960 per dose for Eylea

vs. $60 per dose for Avastin. “Off-label drug use”

The fine print in the JAMA article is a hint

to this effort. Dr. Ip and his SCORE2 co-chair, Dr.

Ingrid Scott of Penn State College of Medicine, as

well as several other key individuals, held primary

responsibility for the research: for the concept

and design; for acquiring research funding from

the National Eye Institute (NEI) of the National

Institutes of Health (NIH); for reaching agreement

with two major pharmaceutical firms for the

donation of medications for comparison; for seeking

approval from the Food and Drug Administration

(FDA) to carry out the study; for the integrity

of the data and the accuracy of its analysis; for

drafting the manuscript; and on and on.

“Barely a day went by that we weren’t working

on some aspect of SCORE2,” says Dr. Ip, who at

the same time was running his medical practice,

performing surgery, teaching, and—over the past

year and a half—serving as medical director of

the Doheny Image Reading Center. Doheny Eye

Institute President and Chief Scientific Officer,

SriniVas Sadda, also had a key role in SCORE2

as a member of its Data and Safety Monitoring

Committee.

Highlighting the importance of the SCORE2

research is its very place of publication. JAMA

is the most widely circulated medical journal on

the planet. Its mission is to promote the art of

medicine and the betterment of public health.

What is score2? What is retinal vein occlusion?

SCORE2 is an acronym for the Study of COmparative Treatments for REtinal Vein Occlusion 2. The researchers were comparing the

is the term used to describe this common and

acceptable practice of prescribing drugs for uses

beyond FDA-approved indications.

“In the parlance of the industry,” says Dr.

Ip, “we wanted to investigate whether Avastin

is ‘non-inferior’ to Eylea for treating macular

edema caused by central retinal vein occlusion.”

If so, doctors and patients would have additional

assurance in their deliberation about treatment

options.”

The design of the study was a randomized

clinical trial, the gold standard for medical

comparisons. Half the SCORE2 participants received

Eylea while the other half received Avastin, both

by intraocular injection every four weeks for six

months. The main measure for comparison was

an improvement in visual

acuity. In other words,

was patients’ visual acuity

with Avastin, the non-

FDA approved treatment

for CRVO, similar to visual

acuity with the approved

treatment Eylea?

“The FDA and NEI

granted us the opportunity

to do this work based on its

potential to improve public

health,” says Dr. Ip. “The

answer is that both drugs

improved visual acuity to approximately the same

degree.”

Given today’s rising medical costs, these

findings are big news. To put it in the language

of Dr. Ip and his co-authors in their JAMA

article, “Among patients with macular edema

due to central retinal vein occlusion, intravitreal

bevacizumab is no different to aflibercept with

respect to visual acuity after six months of

treatment.” This study would save millions of

dollars and allow more CRVO patients to receive

effective medical care.

Score!

the answer is that

both drugs improved

visual acuity to approximately

the same degree.

In Rio de Janiero, Dr. luiza neves uses the RetCam shuttle (portable fundus camera) to take pictures of a baby’s eyes in the hospital.

Drs. andrea Zin and Irena tsui are examining a baby in clinic.

Irena Tsui, MD, is an adult and pediatric retina specialist at Doheny Eye Center UCLA. She is helping the world understand the damage that Zika virus can do to the developing eye.

Most people will remember the anxiety in the United States in 2016 about the

risk to pregnant women of contracting the mosquito-borne Zika infection. A year

earlier, reports from Brazil indicated that Zika virus might be responsible for an

unusually high number of babies born with microcephaly—an abnormally small

head—and other devastating neurological birth defects.

In April 2016, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concluded that, in

fact, Zika virus was responsible for the microcephaly and brain abnormalities.

the eye and brain togetherThe eye and the brain are closely related, not just physically, but also

developmentally. In the womb, the eyes grow from the same tissue that forms the

brain. To Dr. Tsui, several of her UCLA colleagues, and like-minded scientists and

clinicians at the Fernandes Figueira Institute (IFF) in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, it made

sense to investigate eye findings in babies born to Zika-infected mothers.

UCLA infectious disease specialist and public health expert Karin Nielsen-Saines,

MD, was the first to approach Dr. Tsui with the thought. “I agreed, and with a team

from UCLA, we embarked in December 2016 on the first of many trips to learn all we

could about eye involvement in Zika infection,” says Dr. Tsui.

The IFF team had already collected laboratory samples from pregnant women

with Zika symptoms and were using a well-developed research protocol to study their

newborns. Could infants with microcephaly also have eye disease? Is the pathology

unique to Zika or could it be confused with other congenital infections such as

rubella, toxoplasmosis, cytomegalovirus, herpes, chikungunya, or dengue, to name

a few? Would a definitive eye-based Zika diagnosis reflect brain involvement and be

amenable to low vision therapy, occupational therapy, or other interventions?

a unique grouP of Mothers and babiesThe babies and mothers being treated by IFF doctors were a unique group. Unlike

other “cohorts” affected, the IFF patients had their Zika diagnosis confirmed by a

very specialized test, and a record of the time during pregnancy that the infection

occurred. “The variety of abnormalities associated with Zika virus exposure is broad,”

says Dr. Tsui. “Laboratory confirmation of infection is extremely complicated because

the results can be confused with other common tropic diseases like dengue virus. A

definitive laboratory test of infection gave us a certainty about studying Zika’s ocular

effect in infants with a range of findings.”

To be more precise JAMA Pediatrics recently published a scientific report of initial

eye findings by the US-Brazilian team. The report is based on examinations of 112

infants (newborns to one year of

age) with confirmed infection. It

features details of eye pathology

and draws links between eye

involvement, microcephaly, brain

abnormalities, and the timing

during pregnancy of the maternal

infection.

Approximately 40% of the

infants had eye abnormalities. Of

these, 20 had microcephaly and 31

had apparent brain involvement.

The effect on the eye was most

closely matched to maternal Zika infection during the first trimester of pregnancy.

Notably, ten infants had eye findings without the presence of microcephaly.

This report led the Center for Disease Control to recommend eye screening for

all infants whose mother had a confirmed laboratory diagnosis of Zika infection, not

just those infants with microcephaly. “We would like all infants born during a Zika

epidemic to have a screening eye exam,” says Dr. Tsui, “but this is not always possible

because of limited resources.”

The most common findings are optic nerve and retinal involvement.

next stePs This is the beginning of the story. “We are following over 250 infants

who were affected by Zika virus,” says Dr. Tsui. “We believe their

condition may improve with low vision, occupational, and physical

therapy and are continuing to follow their visual function and

neurological development.”

Although Zika is currently quiet across the Americas, it could

return, as other mosquito-borne viruses have done in the past. “We

and our colleagues in infectious disease, obstetrics, neonatology,

and neurology want to be prepared with more knowledge,

preventive strategies, and early intervention. We want to provide

the best possible outcome for children born during a Zika virus

epidemic.”

Dr. Tsui is returning to Brazil in April for her fourth visit to the

children, their families, and her colleagues.

Kenneth lU, MD: EyE Doctor, Innovator, ExtrEmE PumPkIn carvEr

“I have two passions,” says Dr. Kenneth Lu, “One is ophthalmic innovation and entrepreneurship. The other is art.”

Dr. Lu is a Doheny-UCLA

ophthalmologist who specializes

in cataract and refractive

surgery. Among his innovations

is a special intraocular lens (IOL)

that self-adjusts as a

person looks close-up

and far away. He also

galvanizes interest

and action among

his colleagues for the

commercialization of

innovative medical

advances.

As an artist, Dr. Lu sculpts wildly imaginative shapes and

familiar faces—out of pumpkins! He is a gifted painter, but it

is inventive pumpkin carving that garners his attention and

enthusiasm.

One could argue that being an artist and an

ophthalmologist are similar endeavors. A great surgeon is

technically adept, precise and creative, talents that are all

needed in the production of art. Indeed, at UC Berkeley, Dr.

Lu majored in both biochemistry and art, and once even

considered a career in art.

oPhthalMology and entrePreneurshiPTo design and patent his IOL, Dr. Lu worked with

engineers, lawyers, business strategists, investors, and

industry executives. “The path was arduous and long,” he

says. Then he set out to convert his experience into useful

knowledge for fellow Doheny

innovators and entrepreneurs,

Dr. Lu established an annual

Doheny Eye Institute conference

called, “Innovations and

Entrepreneurship: Ideation to

Commercialization.” A similar

effort he spearheads is the

“Entrepreneurship Taskforce,”

which supports innovators and

entrepreneurs like himself.

Not everything that is

discussed at these conferences

applies strictly to ophthalmology.

At the December 2017

conference, for example, a UCLA

business strategy professor presented his idea of using copper

to fight hospital-based infections. “It turns out that copper

is naturally antimicrobial,” says Dr. Lu. “It kills bacteria,

viruses, and fungi usually within minutes of contact. The

benefit to hospitals and our patients could be huge.”

orange art For the past several years, he and his family have

gone above and beyond at Halloween. Like many of

us, they carve grocery store

pumpkins using tools from

the local hobby shop and

protecting their

kitchen table with

paper bags. But

that is where

the similarity

ends.

For four or five hours straight, they dig in and carve

out, crafting orange rind and pulp into likenesses of their

favorite singers, actors, and characters, etc.. “It’s fun and

invigorating. My best outcome was Elvis Presley,” says Dr. Lu.

“Bruce Lee came in a close second.”

“Elvis took a lot of shading,” he adds. Shading is

created by precisely placing candles, in deeply or shallowly

carved spaces, in order to take advantage of a candle’s glow,

emphasizing a feature, creating depth, and adding to the

overall illusion of three-dimensionality. The results have

been masterful.

Dr. Lu started his extreme pumpkin-carving by carving

interesting patterns; mistakes could easily be covered by a

decorative flourish or two. “But with Elvis, I had to get it

exactly right,” Dr. Lu says.

innovation Dr. Lu weds art and medicine to innovative thinking. In

addition to creating his own commercial products, Dr. Lu

is interested in the innovations of others. He recently

returned from a trip to China and Hong Kong where he

learned a pioneering cosmetic

surgery technique. “It’s the least

invasive approach for facial surgery

I’ve seen, and with a

remarkable result,” he

says. Dr. Lu’s artistic

talents are certainly invaluable when he performs

eye surgery.

He would agree that seeing clearly, expressing one’s

creativity, and allowing others to do the same are arts in

their own right.

ruTh roMoff

Doheny Eye Institute is sad to announce the passing of beloved supporter and friend, Ruth Romoff. Ruth passed away on December 23, 2017, at the age of 104. Ruth is survived by her sons, Gilbert and Steve, her daughter Marian, her grandchildren Wendy, Gary, Heidi and Alissa, and her great-grandchildren Jessica, Missy, Brooke and Jordan.

Ruth lived a vibrant and active life. She was born in Los Angeles in 1913. She and her

husband Louis purchased a citrus farm in 1943, and Ruth helped to manage the day-to-day

activities at the ranch, all while raising her three children. She served her community by

volunteering on the school board and helping with her local Cub and

Girl Scouts. Ruth inspired those that knew her by her determination

to remain active and engaged throughout her entire life—she

attended public events and traveled well past her 100th birthday.

She will be remembered for her quick wit and sense of humor, her

generosity, and most of all, for her kindness.

Ruth first came to Doheny in the mid-1980s as a patient of

former Doheny physician Dr. George Baerveldt. “Mother was fiercely

committed to maintaining her eyesight,” her daughter Marian

remembers. Although she suffered from glaucoma, Ruth received

treatments that helped to maintain her vision. As a grateful patient, Ruth became a supporter

of vision research at Doheny. She made major contributions to

support glaucoma research, and made Doheny a beneficiary of her

charitable remainder trust.

Ruth will be missed by her friends at Doheny and the

enjoyable moments we shared with her. Ruth enriched the lives

of those of us who knew her, and through her gift to Doheny, her

legacy will help find treatments and cures for eye diseases that

help those she never met. ❧

and their guests for a night of design, delicious

bites and generous giving in

early September. Thanks to Scott
