Filter by:This is a multi-site randomized clinical trial comparing 3 modes of delivering the Managing Fatigue course for reducing fatigue in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). The primary hypothesis is that the teleconference and internet versions of the course will be noninferior to the one-on-one, in person version in terms of the primary outcome of fatigue and secondary outcome of quality of life.
In an RCT, the effect of the MOTOmed movement trainer (Reck, Germany) on spasticity and physical function in pwMS with EDSS score between 4,5 and 7 is investigated. All subjects exercise at home and are supervised and supported by an exercise therapist via an online platform. We compare the effect of a 12 week passive, motor-driven movement therapy (VG1) to an intermittent active and passive training (VG2). After 12 weeks, VG1 continues with an active training including strengthening exercises for another 12 weeks. VG2 does not receive any intervention in the second study phase.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility and initial efficacy of an interval-based walking training at low speed performed with blood flow restriction (BFR) on gait speed and functional impairments in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Patients with severe MS will be recruited at outpatient rehabilitation clinics (University Hospital of Ferrara). Eligible participants will be randomized to interval walking training with BFR (the experimental group) or conventional exercise therapy (the control group) according to a blocked-randomization stratified by gender with 1:1 ratio. Both groups will receive 12 rehabilitative sessions over 6 weeks, for a 2 sessions/week pattern. The experimental group will undergo interval-based walking training at a slow speed according to a walk:rest ratio of 1:1 for a total of 6 minutes, to be repeated 5 times. Blood flow restriction, applied to the proximal thigh, will be set at a maximum of 40% of systolic blood pressure. The control group will be treated with conventional therapy. Changes in gait speed, endurance, balance, lower limbs strength and quality of life will be assessed at baseline, at the end of training, and at follow up. The proposed training modality has never been tested in patients with MS and, if the hypotheses were supported by the results, might be a novel tool to improve muscle strength with a positive impact on gait disabilities, balance and quality of life for patients with MS.
The purpose of this study is to develop tools to detect, measure, monitor and predict axonal damage in the course of CIS and during Multiple sclerosis (MS), in order to be able to consider as early as possible an adaptation of the background treatment in patients with MS. patients with radiological criteria of poor long-term clinical course.
Phase I / II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of melatonin administration combined with ocrelizumab in patients with Progressive Multiple Primary Sclerosis.
This is a randomized controlled trial that will test the effects of intermittent fasting (IF) in subjects with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS). The goal of this clinical trial is to acquire objective evidence regarding whether an IF diet has beneficial effects in MS patients.Two dietary regimens, IF and western diet, will be compared in a randomized, controlled, single-blinded 12 week trial in RRMS patients. This is a single-center study.
The objective of this trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of CNM-Au8 as a remyelinating treatment for vision-impairing MS lesions in participants who have chronic vision impairment as a result of Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis. The primary endpoint is to assess the efficacy and safety of CNM-Au8 as a remyelinating therapy in patients with stable RMS. The secondary endpoint is Change in Functional Composite Responder Analysis Score from Baseline to Week 24.
The purpose of this study is to determine the utility of a performance measure for the dual-task of gait and considering people with multiple sclerosis have both cognitive and motor problems, the secondary aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a gait-specific dual-tasking intervention for ambulatory individuals with multiple sclerosis.
The DELIVER-MS study seeks to answer the question: Does early treatment with highly effective DMT improve the prognosis for people with MS? This is an area of significant controversy and no data currently exist to guide treatment choices for patients and clinicians. The study results will help guide overall treatment philosophy and will be applicable not only to a wide range of existing therapies but also to new therapies, meeting a significant unmet need in patient decision making and aiding the decision for medication approval by third parties.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm effectiveness and safety study in participants with progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS).
