New Options in Neuromyelitis Optics Therapy Are Getting Approved in Japan, Germany, and Mexico
Neuromyelitis Optics therapy involves the use of special applications for the treatment of this condition. These applications include in-situ and in-vitro therapies, as well as external applications such as cortisone injections. Neuromyelitis Optics is an extremely rare disease condition of the central nervous system (C NS) that directly affects the optic nerve. In this condition, the nerve cells are extremely sensitive to various bacteria types that can invade the skin. The most common type of bacteria involved is Streptococcus viridans, which is responsible for a large number of eye infections in humans.
There are several different types of neuromyelitis optics therapy available to relieve the pain associated with the disease. Each of these applications is designed for a specific symptom and case scenario of the condition. The most common application of Neuromyelitis Optics therapy is for acute attacks, which are sudden, persistent symptoms of inflammation in which the nerve is extremely inflamed and damaged. Acute attacks typically last around ten days and are followed by resolution within the same week. A majority of people with this condition experience an acute attack once but never again.
One particular application that is commonly used in the management of Neuromyelitis Optics is intravenous immunoglobulin (IVG). This is a highly effective form of therapy that is used to prevent the recurrence of the infection. This is one hundred percent successful treatment that is administered up to three times a day. In IVG the medication is introduced into the bloodstream through the vein. This is done so that the medication is able to enter the body quickly where it is needed. IVG is administered on an outpatient basis and can be given with or without food. As R&D continues, various healthcare companies have received regulatory approval for their neuromyelitis optics therapy options. For instance, Roche received the regulatory clearance from Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare (MHLW) for ENSPRYNG, indicated for the prevention of relapses of neuromyelitis optics spectrum disorder.
