Mycophenolate mofetil is an antimetabolite that has been found to suppress recurrence of Neuromyelitis Optica. In Japan, single steroid is commonly used for the treatment of Neuromyelitis Optica. In this study, we are aiming to demonstrate a treatment method with fewer side effects by using Mycophenolate mofetil in combination with steroid.

The study included nine patients with NMOSD who received MMF along with prednisolone dose reduction. MMF was effective in achieving prednisolone dose reduction without relapse in 77.8% of patients, with a significant reduction in the mean annualized relapse rate. All adverse events were mild. The results suggest that MMF may be a viable treatment option for middle-aged and older patients who require steroid reduction.
