Brief Summary:
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of OCS-05 compared to placebo in patients with acute optic neuritis (AON) receiving the standard of care

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Optic Neuritis Optic; Neuritis, With Demyelination Drug: OCS-05 IV administration Other: Placebo IV administration Phase 2

Detailed Description:
ACUITY is a phase 2, multicentric, two-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of OCS-05 compared to placebo in patients with acute optic neuritis (AON) receiving the standard of care. Fourty-two (42) eligible patients aged 18 to 60, with recent onset (visual loss symptoms) of unilateral AON (idiopathic or associated with multiple sclerosis) will be randomized to receive OCS-05 or placebo.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: OCS-05
Once daily IV infusions of OCS-05 (n=18) for 5 consecutive days
Drug: OCS-05 IV administration
Multiple Dose of OCS-05 IV administration for 5 consecutive days

Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Once daily IV infusions of Placebo (n=18) for 5 consecutive days
Other: Placebo IV administration
Placebo IV administration for 5 consecutive days




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of patients with treatment-related adverse events (frequencies and percentages tabulated by treatment group) [ Time Frame: up to 6 months ]
    To determine if OCS-05 treatment is associated within increase of adverse event


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Describe the change in Ganglion Cell and Inner Plexiform Layer (GCIPL) thickness, absolute and relative change from baseline (of the affected eye) to each time point (t5, M1, M3, M6) by treatment group and OCS-05 pooled group [ Time Frame: up to 6 months ]
    To determine the change in retinal layers thickness as compared to baseline in the affected eye

  2. To describe the change in visual function (high to low contrast visual acuity and Humphrey visual fields) from baseline to each time point (M1, M3, M6) by treatment group and OCS-05 pooled group [ Time Frame: up to 6 months ]
    Change in clinical vision parameters in the affected eye as compared to baseline

  3. To summarize the Visual Evoked Potential latency and amplitude and the change from baseline of the affected eye to each time point (M3 and M6) by treatment group and OCS-05 pooled group [ Time Frame: Up to 6 months ]
    Change in electrophysiological parameters in the affected eye as compared to baseline

  4. To summarize the EDSS (Expanded Disability Status Scale) scores and the change from baseline to each time point (M1, M3 and M6) by treatment group and OCS-05 pooled group [ Time Frame: Up to 6 months ]
    Change in neurological parameters in the affected eye as compared to baseline

  5. To summarize the incidence of clinically notable laboratory abnormalities [ Time Frame: Up to 6 months ]
    Change in safety laboratory parameters as compared to baseline

  6. To describe the Cmax of OCS-05 for patients having the full PK scheme and for patients having the single PK point at 1.5h post infusion on Day 1 [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]
    Characterize the PK profile of OCS-05 3mg/kg

  7. To describe the Tmax of OCS-05 for patients having the full PK scheme and for patients having the single PK point at 1.5h post infusion on Day 1 [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]
    Characterize the PK profile of OCS-05 3mg/kg

  8. To describe the AUC0-t of OCS-05 for patients having the full PK scheme and for patients having the single PK point at 1.5h post infusion on Day 1 [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]
    Characterize the PK profile of OCS-05 3mg/kg
