This study will evaluate the effect of an individualized web-based physical training in fingolimod -treated patients.
Low vitamin D levels have been shown to increase a person's risk of developing multiple sclerosis (MS), and patients with MS who have lower vitamin D levels are at increased risk of having attacks. However, it is not known if giving supplemental vitamin D to those with MS reduces the risk of attacks, and some research suggests that vitamin D could even be harmful to people with MS. In this clinical trial, patients with relapsing-remitting MS will receive high-dose or low-dose oral vitamin D in addition to an approved therapy for MS, glatiramer acetate. Patients will be evaluated for two years, and the effect of high-dose vitamin D supplementation on the rate of MS attacks and on the number of new lesions and change in brain volume on MRI will be determined. Establishing this association will have major implications for the treatment of individuals with MS throughout the world.
This study is primarily designed to evaluate the impact of AVONEX PEN autoinjector on work capacity of participants with multiple sclerosis (MS) starting on this device. This study will also evaluate as secondary endpoints various patient-reported outcomes over the short-term (1 month), including adherence, treatment satisfaction and convenience, and the long-term (12 and 24 months), including adherence, persistence, quality of life (QOL), treatment satisfaction and convenience. It will also assess health resource utilization by MS participants starting on AVONEX PEN autoinjector, as well as overall safety/tolerability, and will correlate all secondary outcomes with the primary (i.e., work capacity).
The purpose of this study is demonstrate that efficacy and safety of Synthon's glatiramer acetate (GTR) is equivalent to Copaxone® (Teva) in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis
The primary objective of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of teriflunomide in multiple sclerosis (MS) with relapses. Secondary objectives were: - To determine the effect of teriflunomide on additional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) variables as well as clinical and quality of life measures. - To investigate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic relationships.
The primary objective of the study is to determine which baseline and yearly response factors (clinical and para clinical) predict overall disease-free status at Month 12 and Month 24, and clinical disease-free status in subsequent Months 36 and 48. The secondary objectives are: To identify prognostic factors at Baseline that predict overall disease-free status at Month 12, and to assess if yearly overall disease-free response factors predict overall disease-free status at Month 24; To evaluate clinical disease-free status (relapse, Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS]) at each analysis time point of Months 12, 24, 36, and 48; To identify prognostic factors at Baseline that predict clinical disease-free status at Month 12, and to assess yearly clinical disease-free response factors that predict clinical disease-free status (relapse, EDSS) in subsequent years at Months 24, 36, and 48; To evaluate the impact of Tysabri at each analysis time point of Months 12, 24, 36, and 48 on the following: annualized relapse rate (ARR), sustained EDSS progression and improvement (24-week sustained); To evaluate the impact of Tysabri at each analysis time point of Months 12, 24, 36, and 48 on the following: magnetic resonance image (MRI) measures: T2, T1, T1 with Gadolinium (Gd), brain atrophy; To evaluate the impact of Tysabri at Month 24 and Month 48 on the following: optical coherence tomography (OCT), Low and High Contrast Visual Acuity Assessment; To evaluate the impact of Tysabri at each analysis time point of Months 12, 24, 36, and 48 on the following: cognitive impairment (Symbol Digit Modalities Test [SDMT]), capacity for work (Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire [WPAI]), quality of life (QoL) (Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale [MSIS-29])
The primary objective of the study is to assess the effect of long-term treatment with prolonged-release (BIIB041) (fampridine) 10 mg twice daily on the physical component scale (PCS) of the Short Form (36) Health Status Questionnaire (SF-36) as reported by treatment responders. The secondary objectives of this study are to compare the change in the PCS of the SF-36 between treatment responders and non-responders, to evaluate change from baseline in additional QoL measures among treatment responders as well as changes from baseline in treatment responders versus non-responders and to assess the safety and tolerability of prolonged-release fampridine 10 mg twice daily.
The primary objective of the study is to collect additional safety data including the incidence rate of seizure and other specific Adverse Events (AEs) of interest from participants taking Fampyra in routine clinical practice. The secondary objectives of this study are to characterize utilization patterns of Fampyra in routine clinical practice, to assess the effectiveness of risk minimization measures as described in the risk management plan for Fampyra, to assess the change over time in participant self-reported evaluation of the physical and psychological impact of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) while taking Fampyra and to assess the change over time in physician assessment of walking ability in participants taking Fampyra (MS participants only).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether people with MS who are exposed to a small number of hookworms will have less inflammation and less MS disease activity.
