Efficacy and safety of abatacept to treat active birdshot uveitis: a prospective open label interventional proof-of-concept trial

Conclusions Abatacept is very efficacious to treat both retinal vasculitis and choroiditis in patients with BU and is well tolerated. BCVA and CRT are inadequate to monitor disease activity. On the other hand, CCT is a promising non-invasive tool to detect treatment response in early active BU and dual FA-ICGA Score is very helpful to evaluate retinal vasculitis and choroiditis quantitatively. Trial registration number NCT03871361.
