In June 2020, Uplizna received the world's first regulatory approval in the United States: as a maintenance regimen twice a year after the initial dose, it is used to treat anti-aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibody-positive NMOSD adult patients.
It is estimated that about 80% of NMOSD patients test positive for anti-AQP4 antibodies.

It is worth mentioning that Uplizna is the first and only B cell depleting agent approved for the treatment of AQP4 antibody-positive adult patients with NMOSD.
The active pharmaceutical ingredient of Uplizna is inebilizumab, which is a humanized CD19-directed monoclonal antibody with high affinity to CD19.
CD19 is a protein widely expressed in B cells, including plasmablasts and plasmablasts that secrete antibodies.
Some plasma cells.
After inebilizumab binds to CD19, these cells are quickly exhausted from the circulatory system to prevent NMOSD from recurring.

The mechanism of action of Uplizna's active pharmaceutical ingredient inebilizumab (MEDI-551)
This approval is based on data from the key global clinical study N-MOmentum conducted by Viela Bio, which is a large-scale study conducted in adult patients (including Japanese patients) of the real-world lineage of NMOSD.
The study is a global, randomized, double-dummy, placebo-controlled study, enrolling a total of 213 anti-AQP4 antibody-positive patients and 17 anti-AQP4 antibody-negative patients.
In the study, these patients were randomly divided into 2 groups at a ratio of 3:1, and received 2 introductory doses of 300 mg inebilizumab monotherapy or placebo on day 1 and day 15, and were followed up for 6.
5 months (197 day).
After the randomized control period (RCP), patients can choose to enter the open-label expansion period, and all patients receive 300 mg inebilizumab monotherapy every 6 months.
The primary endpoint is the time from the start of treatment to the onset of NMOSD.

The primary endpoint is the time from the start of treatment to the onset of NMOSD.
According to the recommendations of the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) and based on evidence of efficacy, the study ended early.
The data showed that the primary endpoint was reached: after 28 weeks of treatment, in AQP4-IgG seropositive patients, compared with placebo, inebilizumab significantly reduced the risk of an NMOSD attack by 77% (HR=0.
227, p<0.

In the total treated patient group (including AQP4-IgG seronegative patients), compared with placebo, inebilizumab reduced the risk of an NMOSD attack by 73% (HR=0.

0001).
At the end of the randomized control period, 89% of AQP4-IgG seropositive patients treated with inebilizumab had no seizures, compared with 58% in the placebo group.

These AQP4-IgG autoantibodies are thought to be produced by plasmablasts and plasma cells, and are mainly related to the stars in the central nervous system.
Shaped glial cells combine.
The binding of AQP4-IgG antibody to the central nervous system is thought to trigger an attack that damages the optic nerve, spinal cord, and brain.
Blindness, paralysis, loss of sensation, bladder and bowel dysfunction, neuralgia, and respiratory failure may all be manifestations of the disease.
Each NMOSD attack will cause further injury and disability.
NMOSD is more common in women and may be more common in non-whites.

In 2020, Roche IL-6R monoclonal antibody Enspryng (satralizumab) was approved for marketing, becoming the second drug approved for the treatment of NMOSD.
It is worth mentioning that Enspryng is the first and only treatment that targets the inhibition of interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) activity to treat NMOSD.
The drug is a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets IL-6 receptors to inhibit IL-6 signaling.
IL-6 is a cytokine that is believed to play a key role in the inflammation of NMOSD, triggering the inflammatory cascade, leading to injury and disability.
