About this study
In plain language
This study tests how safe privosegtor is and how well it works for adults with optic neuritis, or swelling of the nerve that carries signals from the eye to the brain. It compares privosegtor plus the usual treatment, methylprednisolone, with a placebo (no active drug) plus the same usual treatment.
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).
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- You are 18 to 50 years old.
- This is your first episode of optic neuritis in the eye being studied, with vision loss in one eye.
- Your vision loss started within 12 days before your first study treatment.
Who can't join
- You have or have had a health condition that the study doctor thinks could make the results hard to understand or put your safety at risk.
Simplified for readability. The official criteria below are what the study team uses.
