Efficacy and Safety of Baricitinib in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders
April 9, 2024 updated by: Qiang Liu, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital
Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders (NMOSD) is associated with a pathological humoral immune response against the aquaporin-4(AQP-4) water channel.
Baricitinib is an oral Janus kinase (JAK)1/JAK2 inhibitor that blocks the upregulated JAK-STAT pathway in patients with neuroimmune disorders, which is important in bone marrow regulation of B cell proliferation and differentiation.
Baricitinib may benefit some patients with NMOSD due to the important role of B cells in the pathogenesis of NMOSD.
Clincial trials may be needed to observe its efficacy and safety.
Study Overview
Detailed Description
The investigators primarily aim to observe the time to first relapse from initiation of baricitinib treatment.
The secondary outcomes are to determine: The safety profile of baricitinib in participants with NMO and whether baricitinib improves Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), et al.

The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) is a rating system that is frequently used for classifying and standardizing the severity and progression.
EDSS ranges from 0 to 10.

Changes in the number of New, and/or Enlarging T2 Hyperintense Lesions as Detected by Optic nerve,brain and spinal cord Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Time Frame: From baseline to 52 weeks
|
The total number of new and/or enlarging T2 lesions for all participants was calculated as the sum of the individual number of lesions at Weeks 12, 24, and 52
|
From baseline to 52 weeks
|
Changes in peripheral blood B cell subsets
Time Frame: From baseline to 52 weeks
|
Compare peripheral blood plasma cells before and one year after initial intervention
