Filter by:This is an open-label, single-arm clinical trial. Trial participants will include men and women, aged 18-60 years who have had a first demyelinating event within the previous 180 days and who have brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with at least two brain T2 lesions which are at least 3 mm in diameter, and at least one of which is ovoid or periventricular or infra-tentorial. Treatment with minocycline until the endpoint is reached or to a maximum of 24 months or until the last-enrolled participant reaches their 12 month visit.
This trial is being conducted to demonstrate the efficacy of nabiximols, compared with placebo, when added to standard of care, in the treatment of muscle spasms associated with multiple sclerosis (MS).
The hypothesis of the study is that according to modern data, the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis is inextricably linked to the patient's microbiota. Therefore, transplantation of a normal fecal microbiota (FMT) can improve the outcome of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (autoHSCT) by increasing the disease-free period and disease progression suspension for at least 5 years after transplantation, which meets the NEDA (No Evidence of Disease Activity) criteria, satisfying the current trends of clinical neurology.
This is an 8-week randomized controlled trial to help address health, resilience, and well-being. Participants are randomized into either a health education group or an arts-based health education group. Both groups will attend for 8 weeks and various study assessments will be conducted in order to measure the experience and impact of the program. Anyone 18 years and older with a chronic health condition (for example, diabetes, hypertension, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, asthma, weight, anxiety, depression, cardiac, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and many more) are eligible to participate.
This is both a prospective and retrospective study of patients with a known diagnosis of optic neuritis (ON) only, multiple sclerosis (MS) with ON, or neuromyelitis spectrum disorder (NMOSD) with ON. There will be no requirement for blinding (patient or assessor) and data collected with the Reflex app will be compared against other data that track optic nerve functional status, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), visual fields (VF), low-contrast sensitivity, MRI orbits/brain and visual evoked potentials (VEP). Patients who have any diagnosis of ON, with or without a diagnosis of MS or NMOSD and who have had testing using other modalities such as VEPs, VF, low-contrast sensitivity studies, OCT, and MRI of brain or orbits will be included as retrospective subjects in the study. In this cohort, RAPD assessments will be completed and compared to against the data that has accrued as noted.
The study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of evobrutinib administered orally twice daily versus Interferon-beta-1a (Avonex®), once a week intramuscularly in participants with Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS).

Chronic fatigue is the most common and debilitating symptom in multiple sclerosis patients. This chronic fatigue affects their quality of life by decreasing their capacity to perform simple tasks of daily life. The aim of the present project is to determine whether deteriorated neuromuscular function (i.e. increased fatigability) is involved in this feeling of chronic fatigue. Because the causes of this feeling are multi-dimensional, a large battery of tests will allow us to better understand the origin of chronic fatigue. A better knowledge of chronic fatigue etiology will allow to optimize rehabilitation treatments to decrease the apparition/persistence of chronic fatigue and in fine improve quality of life.
Vascular comorbidities, such as high cholesterol, obesity, high blood pressure, and diabetes, are common among people with multiple sclerosis (MS), and can negatively impact disease diagnosis, treatment, and progression. Physical inactivity may be one possible reason for this increased risk and may occur through changes in cardiorespiratory fitness (the ability of the body to transport and use oxygen during sustained physical activity). While exercise training is effective for improving fitness, factors such as accessibility to facilities and financial cost may not make it a viable option for most people with MS. An alternative approach for improving fitness is by increasing daily physical activity levels. The research team has developed and tested an Internet-delivered lifestyle physical activity intervention that has been shown to improve physical activity levels among people with MS. This lifestyle intervention is a promising approach for also increasing fitness and managing vascular comorbidity risk in persons with MS. This randomized clinical trial will examine the efficacy of a 6-month lifestyle physical activity intervention on cardiorespiratory fitness and vascular comorbidity risk in persons with MS.
The purpose of this study is to to determine how implementing a home-based virtual reality video (VR) game exercise program in young people with Multiple Sclerosis(MS) can improve disability outcomes by measuring its impact on cognitive assessments (BICAMS), subjective measures of cognitive, physical and psychosocial disability, and motor assessments (6MWT).
