Clinical Trial Summary

To compare the safety and efficacy of Inebilizumab and Rituximab in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) patients.

Description:

Inebilizumab is a humanized anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody. CD19 is broadly expressed on B-lineage cells, particularly late-stage memory B-lymphocytes and plasma blasts. Inebilizumab depletes antibody-secreting plasmablasts and some plasma cells.

Rituximab (RTX) is a chimeric anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody that promotes B-lymphocyte depletion through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC)/complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), promotes an immunoregulatory T-lymphocyte phenotype, and activates neutrophil/macrophage phagocytosis.

This is a retrospective, multicentre, real-world study which aims to compare Inebilizumab with RTX in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders patients. Eighty patients from 8 centres in China will be enrolled.

Primary	Change in Expanded Disability Status Scale Score (EDSS) from baseline.	Change in Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score from baseline to 12 months after treatment (EDSS: Minimum Score 1, Maximum score 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome).	12 months
Primary	Time to first relapse	Relapse: A monophasic clinical episode with patient-reported symptoms and objective findings reflecting a focal or multifocal inflammatory demyelinating event in the central nervous system (CNS), developing acutely or subacutely, with a duration of at least 24h, without fever or infection.	12 months
Primary	Number of new, and/or enlarging T2- hyperintense lesions detected by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)	Number of new, and/or enlarging T2-hyperintense lesions detected by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) at the last visit.	12 months
Secondary	Change in Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score from baseline	Change in Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score from baseline at month 6 (EDSS: Minimum Score 1, Maximum score 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome).	6 months
Secondary	Percentage of Participants with Disability Improvement	Disability improvement is defined as a reduction in EDSS score of: A) >=1.0 from the baseline EDSS score when the baseline score was <=5.5 B) >= 0.5 when the baseline EDSS score > 5.5(EDSS: Minimum Score 1, Maximum score 10, higher scores mean a worse outcome).	12 months
Secondary	Percentage of Participants with Disability Worsening	A participant was considered to have a worsening in overall EDSS score of at least 2 if baseline EDSS score was 0, or at least 1 point if baseline EDSS score is 1 to 5, or at least 0.5 point if baseline EDSS score is 5.5 or more.	12 months
Secondary	Change in modified Rankin score (mRS) from baseline	Change in modified Rankin score (mRS) from baseline at month 12(mRS: Minimum Score 0, Maximum score 6, higher scores mean a worse outcome).	12 months
Secondary	Change in Timed 25 Foot Walk Test from baseline	Change in time taken to complete the timed 25foot walk test from baseline	12 months
Secondary	Number of NMOSD attacked related rescue treatment.		12 months
Secondary	Annual relapse rate (ARR) before and after Inebilizumab/Rituximab	ARR will be measured in the baseline (according to patients' history before inebilizumab/rituximab) and after 12 months of intervention.	12 months
