Abstract Details

Prospective characterization of children positive for anti-MOG antibodies meeting Multiple Sclerosis diagnostic criteria
Child Neurology and Developmental Neurology
P4 - Poster Session 4 (5:30 PM-6:30 PM)
7-042
To characterize the clinical features and outcome of children meeting diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis (MS) who were seropositive for antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOGabs).

A minority of subjects meeting the MS diagnostic criteria are MOGabs seropositive (MOG+). Whether these patients exhibit clinical features distinct from typical MS is unclear. 

We assessed the presence of MOGabs in 66 children (median [IQR] age at onset 13.97 [IQR 10.88-15.06] years) diagnosed with MS according to 2010 international diagnostic criteria. Clinical, serological and imaging features were prospectively assessed for a median of 7 years from presentation, and compared between MOG+ and MOG- children using descriptive statistics.

 

At clinical onset, 11/66 (17%) children were MOG+. Seropositive patients were younger (p<0.0001) than seronegative patients, and all presented at age <11 years. The presenting phenotype was optic neuritis (ON) and/or transverse myelitis (TM) for 80% of seropositive versus 41% of the seronegative patients (p =0.019). Brain MRIs at onset were atypical for MS in 9 MOG+ (3 without brain lesions, 3 with diffuse bilateral pattern and 3 with minimal lesions) and 4 MOG- patients (p<0.0001). Oligoclonal bands (OCBs) were detected in 2/8 (25%) MOG+ and in 20/36 (83%) MOG- patients evaluated (p =0.0027). None of the MOG+ patients showed contrast enhancement on baseline MRI, thus none met 2010 McDonald criteria at onset; 2 MOG+ patients met the 2017 criteria due to the presence of OCBs. Of 11 MOG+ patients, 10 developed new brain lesions, 1 developed new spinal cord lesions, and 7 experienced clinical relapses (in almost all cases ON or TM). At last follow-up, total T2 lesion volume in MOG+ patients was significantly smaller compared to MOG- ones (p<0.0001).

While meeting MS diagnostic criteria, children seropositive for MOGabs exhibit clinical and MRI features distinguishing them from MOG-negative typical relapsing MS patients.
