Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of masitinib 6 mg/kg/day versus placebo in the treatment of patients with primary progressive multiple sclerosis or relapse-free secondary progressive multiple sclerosis.
The study will assess the long-term safety and tolerability of AIN457 in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). In addition the long-term pattern of maintenance of efficacy and health related quality of life will be explored.
This is a one-year multi-centre, double blind, placebo controlled, randomized trial investigating oral vitamin D3 (Colecalciferol) as an add-on treatment to interferon-beta-1b for Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Not less than one month after initiation of therapy with interferon beta 1b, MS patients will be randomised to once weekly treatment with peroral colecalciferol capsules (Dekristol®, Swiss-Caps, Switzerland) containing 0.5 mg of vitamin D3, or to once weekly peroral treatment with matching placebo. The hypothesis is that vitamin D suppresses clinical and MRI activity of MS.
The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of repeat ascending doses of GSK2018682. The study will also provide further evidence of the potential therapeutic dose-range by measuring the inhibitory effect of GSK2018682 on Absolute Lymphocyte Counts (ALC).
The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of NT-KO-003 in the treatment of relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis, comparing two doses versus placebo.
This is a study aimed to characterize [18F]PBR111 as an in vivo marker of microglial activation in Multiple Sclerosis. Regional binding of [18F]PBR111 will be quantified with PET in the brain of up to 24 patients with multiple sclerosis and up to 24 age- and gender- matched healthy volunteers.
This study will investigate how 3 new types of drug formulations are absorbed by the body. This study is termed 'open-label', which means volunteers will be aware of which treatment they are receiving. The study involves all volunteers receiving all 3 different formulations, as a single dose, and there is no placebo (dummy-drug; no active ingredient) in this study. Volunteers will also receive a single dose of a formulation used in previous trials (reference formulation), so as a proper comparison with the new formulations can be made. One of the new formulations will also be administered along with food, to assess if the drug performs or is absorbed differently.
The drug being tested in this study is GSK1223249. The drug works by inhibiting a protein that prevents nerve growth. The trial is expected to involve approximately 36 patients. The study objective is to investigate the tolerability, safety and the way the body handles GSK1223249 after a range of single doses in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center phase IV study to assess response to fingolimod initiation according to coping profile in adult patients with highly active relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis in France.
This study focuses on stress, cognition, mood and fatigue and its effect on medication compliance. Medication compliance is measured by the weight of discarded needles. The investigators will be administering neuropsychological testing at baseline and the final visit. The subjects will complete self-report assessments during their 8 weeks in the study. Group A will have additional weekly phone support for meditation, while Group B will have meditation training only.
