NMOSD, satralizumab, AQP4Abstract
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system and is associated with the presence of autoantibodies to anti–aquaporin-4 (AQP4-IgG). Interleukin-6 plays a key role in the pathogenesis of this disorder. Satralizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody, targets the interleukin-6 receptor thus affecting the course of the disease. In Poland, satralizumab treatment has been offered free of charge by the public health service since November 2022. The results of SAkura studies demonstrate the long terms efficacy of satralizumab and provide evidence that satralizumab reduces the risk of relapse in patients with aquaporin-4-immunoglobulin G (IgG)–seropositive (AQP4-IgG+) NMOSD.
