ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new treatment called LASN01 for people with thyroid eye disease (TED), a condition often linked to Graves' disease that affects the eyes and can cause symptoms like bulging eyes and vision problems. LASN01 is designed to target a specific receptor in the body to help reduce these symptoms. The trial aims to assess how safe and effective this treatment is for patients who have not received certain previous therapies or those who have previously been treated with another medication called teprotumumab.

To participate, individuals need to be at least 18 years old and have a diagnosis of Graves' disease with moderate to severe active TED. They should not have had any major treatments like surgery or radiation for their eye condition before joining the study. Participants can expect to receive LASN01 through an intravenous (IV) infusion and will be monitored closely for any side effects and improvements in their symptoms. It's important for potential participants to discuss their health history with their doctor to determine if they meet the eligibility requirements and to understand what to expect during the trial.
