To evaluate the outcomes of uveitic macular edema at 6 and 12 months in patients treated with methotrexate or mycophenolate mofetil.Subanalysis of a block-randomized, observer-masked, multicenter clinical trial.Patients were enrolled in the First-line Antimetabolites as Steroid-sparing Treatment (FAST) Uveitis Trial between August 2013 and August 2017.Patients were randomized to oral methotrexate 25 mg weekly or mycophenolate mofetil 1.5 g twice daily for 12 months, along with a corticosteroid taper. In addition to standardized clinical examination, all patients underwent spectral-domain OCT imaging at each visit. At the 6-month primary end point, patients who achieved treatment success continued the same treatment for a subsequent 6 months, and treatment failures switched to the other treatment group.Prespecified 6-month primary outcome and 12-month outcomes of central subfield thickness and visual acuity.Of 216 patients in the FAST Trial, 42 eyes (30 patients) in the methotrexate group and 55 eyes (41 patients) in the mycophenolate group had uveitic macular edema. Baseline median central subfield thickness was 359 μm and 342 μm in the methotrexate and mycophenolate groups, respectively. At 12 months, for those who stayed on the same treatment, macular thickness decreased from baseline by 30.5 μm (interquartile range [IQR], -132.3 to 4.0) and 54 μm (IQR, -95.5 to -4.5) in the methotrexate and mycophenolate groups, respectively (P = 0.73). In patients who switched treatment at 6 months, macular thickness decreased from baseline by 12.5 μm (IQR, -32.3 to -0.5) and 50 μm (IQR, -181.0 to -10.0) in the methotrexate and mycophenolate groups, respectively (P = 0.34). At 12 months, 7 of 19 eyes (37%) on methotrexate had resolution of macular edema compared with 15 of 25 eyes (60%) on mycophenolate (P = 0.10). For those who switched treatments, 8 of 17 eyes (47%) on methotrexate and 6 of 11 eyes (55%) on mycophenolate had resolution of macular edema (P = 0.92).Treatment with methotrexate or mycophenolate mofetil for uveitic macular edema results in similar improvements in macular thickness at 6 and 12 months. At 12 months, approximately half of eyes in each antimetabolite group still had persistent macular edema.
