NCT05145361
The objectives of this phase Ib study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenic profiles of B001 in subjects with aquaporin-4 antibody (AQP4-IgG) positive NMOSD.

Patients who have immune mediated diseases commonly undergo plasma exchange (PLEX) procedures to remove pathological substances, typically believed to be antibodies. At our facility about 400 of these procedures are performed annually on 40-60 different patients. These procedures are considered within the standard of care for these patients and are covered by insurance. This study will not influence the treatment plan for subjects who participate in this study. The goal of the study is to collect and cryopreserve blood biospecimens (plasma, serum, PBMCs) for current and future studies. Any patient undergoing plasma exchange procedures will be eligible for the study. Patients or the legally authorized representative (LAR) will be consented for the study as soon as feasible after the are referred to DeGowin for plasma exchange. The immediate objective of the study is to examine antibody levels (IgG/IgM) and BAFF levels in the blood of these patients over the course of the plasma exchange treatments. Specimens and clinical data will be collected such that other immune factors that may regulate B cell survival, proliferation and antibody secretion can be studied. Another goal of the study is to isolate and cryopreserve PBMCs at different points during the patient's treatment. This would allow the study of immune cells that may mediate these diseases. The study will also follow pathological antibodies over time in these patients so biospecimens can be obtained even after the completion of their course of plasma exchange treatments. The collection of biospecimens and clinical information from these subjects will help us understand the impact of plasma exchange on both normal and pathological immune factors in a variety of patients undergoing these procedures.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic, and immunogenic profiles of satralizumab, compared with placebo, in addition to baseline immunosuppressive treatment in participants with NMO and NMOSD.
NCT04822623
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and the most common cause of non traumatic disability in young and middle-aged people. Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disease (nmosd) is an independent disease different from Ms. the pathogenesis and the mode of brain and spinal cord injury are different from MS, and the prognosis and optimal treatment are different. It is difficult to distinguish the two diseases in the early stage. Early diagnosis and treatment of the two diseases can greatly improve the quality of life of patients. Therefore, it is an urgent problem to clarify the difference between MS and nmosd injury patterns and to find sensitive imaging markers for early clinical intervention. With the continuous progress of computer aided diagnosis (CAD), it is more and more widely used in medicine, which is expected to help solve the above problems. The purpose of this study is to create a neuroimmune disease evaluation database based on image data. By combining brain and spinal cord imaging, and based on Zhang quantum space learning computer-aided technology, we can achieve accurate segmentation of MS and nmosd brain and spinal cord lesions, analyze the evolution characteristics of the disease at different time points, and screen the imaging indexes related to clinical scores combined with clinical and laboratory indexes Objective: to determine the different prognosis and its influencing factors at the clinical, imaging and molecular levels, and establish the model for predicting disease progression and prognosis, so as to provide the basis for early identification and assistance in guiding treatment and judging prognosis. Clinical information was collected: age, gender, course of disease, MMSE, EDSS disability score, nine hole test, 25 foot walking test. Assess the patient's information processing ability. Blood samples were collected. Imaging examination was performed. The patients were followed up regularly.
