Summary

This study tests whether the drug tocilizumab can safely prevent or delay relapses in people with MOGAD, a rare autoimmune disease that attacks the nervous system. About 102 participants aged 12 and older who have had at least one relapse in the past year will receive either tocilizumab or a placebo. The main goal is to see if the drug reduces the number of relapses over time.
