About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Progressive Multiple Sclerosis focused on measuring Primary progressive MS, Non-active secondary progressive MS, Tyrosine kinase inhibitor, PPMS, SPMS
Eligibility Criteria
Main inclusion criteria include:
- Patients with either primary progressive or secondary progressive multiple sclerosis with onset of symptoms at least five years before baseline and with no relapse diagnosed according to the 2017 revised McDonald's criteria at least two years before screening
- Patients with Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score between 3.0 to 6.0 (both inclusive) at screening and baseline
- Patients with an EDSS score progression ≥1 point with no improvement during 2 years
- Absence of T1 Gadolinium-enhancing brain lesions as measured by MRI at screening
Main exclusion criteria include:
- Patients suffering from a disease other than MS that would better explain the patient's neurological clinical signs and symptoms and/or MRI lesions observed at screening
- Inability to complete screening MRI (contraindications for MRI) and/or any known allergy or hypersensitivity or any contra-indication to gadolinium macrocyclic

Arms of the Study

Arm Type
Experimental
Placebo Comparator
Arm Label
Masitinib (4.5)
Placebo
Arm Description
Participants receive masitinib (3.0 mg/kg/day), given orally twice daily, with a dose escalation to 4.5 mg/kg/day after 4 weeks of treatment. Each ascending dose titration is subjected to a safety control.
Participants receive a matched dose placebo, given orally twice daily.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Time to confirmed progression
Time to disability progression, confirmed by two consecutive visits, wherein progression of disability is measured by the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) with progression defined as a 1-point worsening for baseline EDSS score ≤5.5, or 0.5-point worsening for baseline EDSS score >5.5.
The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) is a method of quantifying disability in multiple sclerosis and monitoring changes in the level of disability over time. The EDSS provides a total score on a scale that ranges from 0 to 10, in 0.5-point increments, with higher scores indicating greater disability. The first levels 1.0 to 4.5 refer to people with a high degree of ambulatory ability and the subsequent levels 5.0 to 9.5 refer to the loss of ambulatory ability.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Time to Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score of 7.0
Time to reach EDSS score of 7 from baseline up to week 96, wherein EDSS score of ≥7.0 represents wheelchair dependency.

The first levels 1.0 to 4.5 refer to people with a high degree of ambulatory ability and the subsequent levels 5.0 to 9.5 refer to the loss of ambulatory ability.
Overall Change in Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) Score
Change from baseline on the EDSS, calculated using repeated measures methodology on all time points measured over 96 weeks (i.e., a population-averaged score comprising consecutive data points from each patient).

Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life (MSQOL)-54
Change in quality of life assessment instrument MSQOL-54 The MS Quality of Life Instrument (MSQoL-54) is a structured self-report questionnaire that is used to assess the impact of MS on the individual's well-being. It consists of 52 items combined in 12 subscales, and two single items. Higher scores indicate a better quality of life.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral masitinib versus placebo in the treatment of patients with primary progressive or secondary progressive multiple sclerosis without relapse.
Detailed Description
Masitinib is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, targeting innate immune cells (mast cells and microglia) that are involved in the pathophysiology of progressive multiple sclerosis (MS). This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, comparative study of oral masitinib in the treatment of patients with progressive MS who were progressing but not clinically active.
