In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

According to the records of traditional Chinese medicine, CBS has the following functions: clearing the heart, resolving phlegm, promoting bile secretion, and calming the nerves. It can treat fever, coma, delirium, epilepsy, convulsions in children, dental caries, throat swelling, oral sores, carbuncle, and furuncle. The significant pathophysiological process of primary inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (hereinafter referred to as IIDD) is the activation of the immune system of the central nervous system and the enhancement of inflammation. It includes several common diseases: multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-related disease (MOGAD), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), concentric sclerosis, tumor-like inflammatory demyelinating disease, etc. Combined with the ins

Any surgical procedure within 4 weeks prior to baseline, except laparoscopic surgery or minor surgery (defined as surgery requiring only local anesthesia or conscious sedation, i.e., surgery that does not require general, neuraxial, or regional anesthesia and can be performed on an outpatient basis; e.g., toenail surgery, mole surgery, wisdom tooth extraction), excluding thymoma or teratoma removal. * Planned surgery during the study (except minor surgery). * History of severe allergic or anaphylactic reactions, or any allergic reaction that the investigator believes may be exacerbated by any component of study treatment. * Current or history of malignant disease, including solid tumors and hematologic malignancies (except for basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma that have been completely resected and considered cured for at least 12 months prior to Day -1).
