Trial summary

Neuromyelitis Optica (NMO) is a neuroinflammatory disease related to multiple sclerosis (MS). It affects young subjects and causes a lot of handicap without treatment. Thus, aggressive treatments are frequently introduced early in the life of patients and maintained over the long term. Read more about this study

About this study

Neuromyelitis Optica (NMO) is a neuroinflammatory disease related to multiple sclerosis (MS). It affects young subjects and causes a lot of handicap without treatment. Thus, aggressive treatments are frequently introduced early in the life of patients and maintained over the long term. A long duration of treatment exposes to iatrogenism. Therapeutic de-escalation trials in MS or other autoimmune diseases show rebound phenomena. In the NMO, there are no published data on the tolerance of desescalations to guide such strategies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neuromyelitis Optica, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Retrospective evaluation of the risk of rebound during therapeutic escalations in neuromyelitis optica (NMO) (time frame: Files analysed retrospectively from January 01, 2000 to December 31, 2020 will be examined]). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jan 2022.
