Brief summary
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of OCS-05 compared to placebo in patients with optic neuritis receiving the standard of care
Detailed description
ACUITY is a phase 2, multicentric, two-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of OCS-05 compared to placebo in patients with acute optic neuritis (AON) receiving the standard of care. Patients received OCS-05 2mg/kg/day, 3mg/kg/day or placebo for five days in addition corticosteroid standard of care (SoC).
Interventions
OCS-05 + SoC (corticosteroid) IV administration for 5 consecutive days
Placebo + SoC (corticosteroid) IV administration for 5 consecutive days
