Resumo

Objetivo: Integrar e sintetizar evidências sobre o uso do fenofibrato na retinopatia diabética (RD), considerando eficácia, segurança e mecanismos de ação. Métodos: Revisão integrativa de literatura em bases biomédicas, com análise de 42 estudos após deduplicação. As evidências foram comparadas de forma crítica, destacando convergências e divergências entre ensaios clínicos, revisões e estudos experimentais. Resultados: Ensaios como FIELD, ACCORD-EYE e LENS indicam redução consistente da progressão da RD em pacientes com DM2 e doença estabelecida, enquanto populações mistas apresentam efeitos limitados. Evidências apontam benefício no edema macular, sustentado por plausibilidade biológica envolvendo mecanismos anti-inflamatórios, antiangiogênicos e neuroprotetores. Contudo, eventos adversos renais permanecem como limitação, embora frequentemente reversíveis. A heterogeneidade metodológica e a escassez de desfechos funcionais robustos limitam a generalização. Conclusões: O fenofibrato emerge como adjuvante promissor no manejo da RD além do controle glicêmico, mas seu papel ainda demanda estudos em DM1, biomarcadores preditivos e desfechos centrados em visão e qualidade de vida.
