Trial overview
Official title: A randomised, comparator controlled, two part, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamics of multiple doses of otelixizumab in patients with thyroid orbitopathy
Trial description: The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of otelixizumab in patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy (thyroid eye disease). There is currently no alternative therapy available for this condition other than treatment with steroids, or radiotherapy and surgery. The study also includes a comparison of the current steroid treatment, methylprednisolone, with the proposed new otelixizumab treatment.

Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Male or female between 18 and 75 years of age inclusive
- A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of:

Female subjects must agree to use contraception for at least 2 weeks prior to dosing and for at least 6 months after the last dose.
