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.
