Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ALXN) today announced that the European Commission (EC) has approved the extension of the current marketing authorization of SOLIRIS® (eculizumab) to include the treatment of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) in adult patients who are anti-aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibody-positive with a relapsing course of the disease.
