A Study To Evaluate Pharmacokinetics, Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, And Pharmacodynamics Of Satralizumab In Pediatric Patients With Aquaporin-4 Antibody Positive Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD) (NCT05199688)
A Phase III, Multicenter, Open-Label, Uncontrolled Study To Evaluate Pharmacokinetics, Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, And Pharmacodynamics Of Satralizumab In Pediatric Patients With AQP4 Antibody Positive Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study will primarily evaluate the pharmacokinetics of satralizumab in pediatric patients aged 2-11 years with anti-aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibody seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics will be evaluated in a descriptive manner, given the small number of patients who will be enrolled in this study.
Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (7 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (8 items).
