Filter by:Spastic paraparesis is one of the most disabling functional deficits in the population with multiple sclerosis between 18 and 80 years of age and at any functional level. Infiltration with Botulinum Toxin is a clinical practice that has been carried out for years with clinical evidence of improvement in the patient's walking patterns and quality of life. We assume that the infiltration of this product can generate a direct benefit in the walking ability of these patients and secondarily improve their quality of life.
This study is a single cohort, central registration system, all-case, open-label, multicenter observational study in patients using Mayzent for the indication of secondary progressive multiple sclerosis.
Obesity is one possible contributor to severity of multiple sclerosis and progression of the disease. We already know that obesity is a risk determinant for acquiring MS, yet the impact of obesity on pediatric MS disease expression and course is unknown. This study will evaluate the relationship between obesity, obesity-derived inflammatory mediators, and imaging metrics of MS severity in children. Understanding how childhood obesity contributes to MS severity/progression may yield fundamental insights into disease pathobiology - which may thereby lead to effective strategies for halting its progression in its earliest stages.
A study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fenebrutinib on disability progression and relapse rate in adult participants with RMS. Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to either fenebrutinib or teriflunomide. Open-Label Extension (OLE) phase is contingent on a positive benefit-risk result in the Primary Analysis of the study.

This feasibility study explores a community-based qigong intervention for people with multiple sclerosis (MS). The primary aim is to assess the feasibility of weekly community qigong classes for people with MS. The secondary aim is to explore the effects of qigong on balance, gait, mood, fatigue, and quality of life.
Natalizumab (NTZ) use in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in highly active patients has been largely established during the last Rationale 10 years in both clinical trials and real-world practice. Along with its efficacy, NTZ use has been limited by potential risk of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Thus, several studies have tried to assess how to minimize this risk. One suggested approach is to move from the standard interval dose (SID) of 4 weeks to an extended interval dose (EID) of 5 weeks or longer. Extending the dosing interval of NTZ has been practiced by some physicians with the intention of improving the benefit/risk of the treatment by reducing the exposure-dependent risk of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) while maintaining efficacy. We propose to retrospectively analyze data from clinical records coming from RRMS patients treated in France at 5 different centers; Caen, Nice, Bobigny and Toulouse hospitals as well as Percy Military Hospital, to evaluate the effectiveness of natalizumab EID in subjects who have previously been treated with natalizumab SID for 12 months, in relation to continued SID treatment. In the clinical practice of these centers, patients are shifted after minimum 12 months under SID to an EID of 6 weeks regardless antibody JC serum status. Clinical, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and serum anti-JCV antibody status data are collected when available. The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy in term of ARR and safety.
This is a multicenter non-inferiority study, designed to establish non-inferiority of the study treatment rituximab compared with the comparator ocrelizumab for consecutively included patients (male or female) with active relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis aged 18-60 years.
Vertigo, dizziness and control postural disturbance are one of the most disabling symptoms in Multiple Sclerosis. These could be caused by a peripheral or central vestibular disorder. Although, central vestibular damage is more prevalent, peripheral vestibular disturbance aetiology is significantly common in this disease. Within peripheral vestibulopathy, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is the most common syndrome. Impairments of posterior semi-circular canals in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo represent among the 60-90 % of the cases. Gold standard treatment in this syndrome is the canalith repositioning procedure, called Epley manoeuvre. This manoeuvre has been deeply investigated in previous studies for participants who only suffer from benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Any randomized clinical trials have been carried out to assess the effectiveness of Epley manoeuvre. However, a retrospective research and a case study reported encouraging results for the resolution of posterior semi-circular canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, through the Epley manoeuvre. The main objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of the Epley Manoeuvre for the improvement of the benign paroxysmal positional vertigo of participants with multiple sclerosis, compared to a passive control group.
This study is aimed to test the efficacy of 10 sessions of Transcranial Rotating Permanent Magnetic Stimulation (TRPMS) paired with aerobic exercise or computerized cognitive training (CT) on mobility and depression symptoms in 40 individuals affected by multiple sclerosis (MS). Participants in Arm 1 will complete 10x40 minutes daily sessions of TRPMS+aerobic exercise. Participants in Arm 2 will complete TRPMS+computerized CT. Primary outcomes for both arms will be assessed at baseline, at treatment end and after 4-week from the treatment end (follow-up).
