An Open Label Study of the Effects of SHR1459 in NMOSDs Patients

An Open Label Phase II Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of SHR1459 in Adult Patients With Neuromyelitis Optical Spectrum Disorders (NMOSDs)

This is an open-label study, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR1459 in participants with NMOSDs.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Drug - SHR1459

Detailed Description

Therefore, the investigators of this study are investigating whether SHR1459 could prevent relapse of NMOSDs.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of SHR1459 in NMOSDs patients.

The secondary objectives are to determine:

The safety profile of SHR 1459 in patients with NMOSDs. Whether SHR1459 reduce MRI lesions and APQ4-Abs level.
