Investigating the Effect of Ocrelizumab in African Americans and Caucasians With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis, Relapsing-Remitting Clinical Trial

Official title:
Investigating the Effect of Ocrelizumab in African Americans and Caucasians With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis: a Novel, Advanced Multimodal MRI and Optical Coherence Tomography-Angiography (OCTA) Study

Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators intend to examine the effects of ocrelizumab use in African American multiple sclerosis disease course compared to Caucasian disease course utilizing imaging measures with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A)..

Clinical Trial Description

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Several lines of evidence suggest that MS is an autoimmune disease with both T and B-cell activity leading to CNS inflammation which results in demyelinating injury. Ocrelizumab was FDA approved in March 2017 for relapsing remitting (RRMS) and primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) by depleting B cells. It has shown to be effective in reducing the annualized relapse rate, decreasing disability progression, and reducing the number of new and active MRI brain lesions. Previous research studies have reported a more aggressive course in African Americans with MS, more lesions on the MRI scan, and more severe injury to layers of the eye (specifically in the retina) compared to Caucasians. This is a novel study investigating the effect of ocrelizumab in African American relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) patients compared to Caucasian RMS patients using imaging measures, specifically multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and optical coherence tomography-angiography (OCTA). This is a non-drug intervention study; therefore, patients who are recruited will have already decided to make ocrelizumab their disease-modifying therapy before enrollment. The study will recruit 86 (including 6 potential screen fails) patients in total (40 African American patients and 40 Caucasian patients who are matched by age, sex, disease duration, and disease disability. The study will consist of 5 visits in six-month intervals across two years. ;
