New drug aims to stop NMOSD attacks in its tracks
NCT ID NCT05314010
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 3 trial tests a drug called MIL62 in 102 people with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), a rare autoimmune disease that attacks the optic nerves and spinal cord. Participants receive MIL62 or a placebo by IV infusion over several months. The main goal is to see if MIL62 can delay or prevent relapses.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- MIL62 (a drug given by IV infusion)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a new treatment option to reduce relapses in people with NMOSD.
- What could go wrong
- This is still an early-to-mid stage trial with only 102 participants. The drug may not prevent relapses better than existing treatments, and side effects are still being studied.
