Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether a 12 week Pilates based core stability training programme is effective in improving balance, mobility and balance confidence in ambulant individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
Open-label, single center, phase I clinical trial to assess the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy and in vivo mechanisms of action of i.v. administration of autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) chemically coupled with a cocktail containing seven immunodominant myelin peptides to which T cell responses are demonstrable in early RR MS patients.
This randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab in comparison with interferon beta-1a (Rebif) in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis. Participants will be randomized to receive either ocrelizumab 600 mg or matching placebo intravenous (IV) as 300 mg infusions on Days 1 and 15 for the first dose and as a single infusion of 600 mg for all subsequent infusions every 24 weeks, with placebo injections matching interferon beta-1a SC three times per week; or interferon beta-1a 44 mcg SC injections three times per week (with placebo infusions matching ocrelizumab infusions every 24 weeks).
The primary objective of the study is to determine physician reported persistence with the Avonex PEN at Month 12/End of Study as well as determining factors associated with persistence. The secondary objectives for this study are as follows: To evaluate the tolerability for treatment administration of the Avonex PEN at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate patient quality of life (QoL) while using the Avonex PEN for treatment administration at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate clarity of directions for use of the Avonex PEN at Month 3; To evaluate ease of use and the patient's assessment of the injection procedure with the Avonex PEN at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate patient reported adherence at Months 6 and 12; To evaluate physician reported persistence at Month 6; To evaluate overall patient satisfaction with the use of the Avonex PEN for treatment administration at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate patient reported fear of injection at Months 3, 6, and 12; and To evaluate the percentage of patients switching from caregiver to self-injection at Months 3, 6, and 12.
The primary objective of this study is to explore the effects of multiple regimens of natalizumab on disease activity and safety in participants with relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS).
Primary Objective: Assess the antibody response to influenza vaccine in patients with relapsing form of multiple sclerosis (RMS) treated with teriflunomide compared to a reference population. Secondary Objectives: - Assess the effect of teriflunomide on immunoglobulin levels; - Assess the safety of influenza vaccination in patients with RMS treated with teriflunomide. The reference population was defined as multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with a stable treatment with interferon-β-1. Antibody response was measured using hemagglutination inhibition assay (HIA) and the hemagglutinin antigens representing the stains of H3N2, H1N1, and B as present in the influenza vaccine used.
Ampyra (dalfampridine-ER) was approved by the FDA (2010) for improving walking speed in persons with multiple sclerosis. This project seeks to determine if there are other benefits to taking dalfampridine besides an increase in walking speed. This is strictly an observational study and research staff will not be involved in any decisions to stop or start taking the medication.
The purpose of this study is to better understand multiple sclerosis (MS) in children and adolescents, to learn if it differs from adult MS and to investigate if genes or environmental exposures or a combination of both put children and adolescents at risk for getting MS.
The MRI study is designed to identify possible mechanisms by which alemtuzumab acts to protect the brain from inflammation and how it may enhance repair through remyelination.
Multiple Sclerosis is the first cause of neurological handicap in France. The importance of cognitive disabilities, their evaluation and their impact on patients' life have only been comprehended recently. Immunosuppressants represent new treatments in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) but imply a lot of constraints. This study will evaluate the impact of these treatments on cognitive disabilities, tiredness state, emotion and quality of life in general, on a lengthened period.
