Patient Preferences for Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD) Treatments: Results from a Discrete Choice Experiment Study in the USA

Respondents with AQP4-Ab+ NMOSD placed the highest importance on reducing chance of relapse, placed a high importance on reduced administration frequency, and rated the safety attributes (avoiding treatments with a risk of meningococcal infection, risk of elevated liver enzymes, and risk of other infections) as comparable to each other but less influential than relapse prevention. Respondents were more likely to select a ravulizumab-like profile over comparators. These findings can inform shared decision-making in selecting treatments.
