An analysis of pharmacological data supports the observed clinical efficacy of Soliris (eculizumab) in significantly reducing relapses in patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) given the therapy in the PREVENT Phase 3 clinical trial. At its approved dose, Soliris led to rapid, sustained, and complete suppression…
Clinical trials
Uplizna (inebilizumab-cdon) was just as safe and effective in people with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) treated after only one symptomatic attack as those treated after two or more attacks, according to an analysis of N-MOmentum Phase 2/3 trial data. This sub-analysis had sought to understand how a…
InnoCare Pharma will soon launch a Phase 2 clinical trial in China to test orelabrutinib, its oral investigational Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, to treat neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). The announcement comes after China’s National Medical Products Administration approved the company’s request to conduct such a trial,…
Uplizna (inebilizumab-cdon) effectively reduced the severity of attacks in people with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) who continued to experience attacks after being treated with the therapy during the N-MOmentum Phase 2/3 clinical trial, recent data analysis shows. The data also demonstrated lower levels of key disease-related biomarkers,…
SB12, Samsung Bioepis’ biosimilar candidate of Soliris (eculizumab), is comparable to the original medication in terms of safety, pharmacological properties, and immunoreactivity profile, according to data from a Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy volunteers. Soliris, by Alexion Pharmaceuticals, is an approved therapy for a number of conditions,…
Prior treatment with rituximab does not limit the effectiveness or safety of Uplizna (inebilizumab-cdon) in people with  neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), a further analysis of data from the N-MOmentum Phase 2/3 trial has found. Uplizna’s efficacy in preventing NMOSD attacks and its safety profile were comparable in trial…
Long-term treatment with Uplizna (inebilizumab-cdon) safely and effectively reduced the frequency of attacks in the 12 neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) patients who were negative for antibodies against aquaporin-4 (AQP4) in the N-MOmentum Phase 2/3 trial. Future, appropriately-controlled studies are needed to confirm Uplizna’s benefits in this subgroup…
Uplizna (inebilizumab-cdon) safely prevented autoimmune attacks in 83% of people with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) who received the treatment for four or more years, data from the N-MOmentum Phase 2/3 clinical trial show. Among those who experienced relapses, most did so during the first year of treatment.
Treatment with Horizon Therapeutics’ Uplizna (inebilizumab) leads to a rapid and sustained drop in immune B-cells in adults with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), data from the N-MOmentum Phase 2/3 clinical trial show. Notably, while all Uplizna-treated patients experienced significant clinical benefits, those with greater B-cell depletion showed lower…
Long-term treatment with Enspryng (satralizumab) safely and sustainably prevents relapses in adolescents and adults with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) who are positive for antibodies against the aquaporin-4 protein (AQP4-IgG), according to four-year data from the SAkura Phase 3 clinical trials. These benefits were observed when the therapy…
