Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of privosegtor, a neuroprotective candidate, in patients diagnosed with optic neuritis (ON). Researchers will compare privosegtor and the standard of care (methylprednisolone) to a placebo and standard of care (methylprednisolone).

Interventions

Privosegtor (OCS-05) 3 mg/kg/day IV for 5 treatment days

DRUGMethylprednisolone

Methylprednisolone 1 g/day IV for 5 treatment days

OTHERPlacebo

0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl) solution IV for 5 treatment days
