Efficacy of tDCS on Pain in Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis

Pain is a common symptom experienced by people with MS and can significantly interfere with participation in the activities of daily living and adversely affect health-related quality of life. Pain in people with MS has the potential to become chronic, as a consequence of neuronal reorganization. Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) promotes the modulation of brain activity and its prolonged and continuous application can effect plastic modification. Combining tDCS with rehabilitation treatment may have effect in reducing pain in people with MS. This is a pilot randomized control trial to test the effects of tDCS in MS-related pain rehabilitation, its efficacy on pain (intensity, quality, interference with physical functioning), catastrophizing, emotional functioning and quality of life. Furthermore, we will explore the effects on pressure pain threshold and EEG recording. Correlations between sample characteristics and pain features will be investigated. Considering role of tDCS on neuropsychological functions, selective attention will be assessed.

Functional Electrical Stimulation Cycling for Managing Mobility Disability in People With Multiple...

Multiple Sclerosis

Mobility impairment is one of the most common, poorly managed, and life altering consequences of MS. Current therapies for managing MS do not prevent the long-term accumulation of mobility impairment, highlighting the need for alternative strategies that prevent or slow progressive mobility disability. The proposed trial will test the efficacy and lasting effects of functional electrical stimulation (FES) cycling as an exercise-based rehabilitation strategy for managing mobility impairment and associated consequences in MS.

Telehealth Pain Self-Management for Employed Adults

Chronic PainBrain Injuries4 more

The E-TIPS trial will evaluate an evidence-based, telehealth pain self-management intervention compared to standard care (a waitlist) for chronic pain in adults with physical disabilities who are employed. Participants from anywhere in the US will be randomized to either E-TIPS, a cognitive-behavioral pain self-management intervention delivered by telephone, or a waitlist control. Outcomes, including pain interference, will be assessed at baseline, mid-treatment, post-treatment, and 6-month follow up.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

A randomized multiple baseline feasibility trial where participants will start taking metformin at one of 3 randomly determined points (3-months, 6-months or 9 months) during the 12-month trial. All subjects will be on a daily dose of metformin for a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 9 months.

Multiple SclerosisRelapsing-Remitting

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic autoimmune, inflammatory neurological disease of the central nervous system. It is the most common disabling neurologic disease of young people. This study is planned for the evaluation of efficacy, safety and tolerability of neuropeptide combination of metenkefalin and tridecactide (EK-12) as compared to INF beta-1a (REBIF®) in patients with RRMS. The primary objective of this study is to prove the superiority of efficacy of neuropeptide combination of metenkefalin and tridecactide (EK-12) compared to INF beta-1a (REBIF®) in patients with RRMS on the basis of annualized protocol defined relapse rate by 144 weeks.

A Study of Ocrelizumab in Children and Adolescents With Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis

This 2-year study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of ocrelizumab in children and adolescents ages ≥ 10 to ≤ 18 years with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The data from this study will serve to determine the dosing regimen of ocrelizumab to be further investigated in the subsequent Phase III study in children and adolescents.

MitoQ for Fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Multiple SclerosisFatigue

The purpose of this study is to determine whether MS patients who receive Oral mitoquinone (MitoQ) have less fatigue than those receiving a placebo. A comparison between patient's fatigue scored at baseline and fatigue scored 12 weeks after drug initiation will assess if MitoQ has a significant change in fatigue.

A Feasibility Pilot Study on Lee Silverman Voice Treatment-Loud: a Telerehabilitation Approach

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is one of the most common causes of neurological disability in young adults. At least 62% of people with MS have speech, vocal, or communication disorders. Among these, alterations in voice intensity and quality constitute a limitation in MS people's social life leading to experience difficulties in work, conversations, and communication especially in noisy environments or through the telephone. Though voice and speech impairments and speech impairments are widely prevalent in this population, only 2% of the people receive speech therapy. The Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT)-Loud is a well-documented, efficacious intensive speech intervention, for treating hypophonia in subjects with neurological conditions. Despite the effectiveness of LSVT-Loud treatment on the voice has been reported in MS, several factors prevent the agile use of this method in rehabilitation centers: motor disability, work commitments, and distance barriers may preclude repeated attendance of this intervention at a healthcare facility. Telerehabilitation represents a feasible solution to bypass these potential barriers related to attendance at the rehabilitation programs in the clinic. The increasing evidence sustains the role of telerehabilitation for the migration of care from the clinic to the patient's homes, overcoming several obstacles affecting service accessibility. Previous studies showed the validity and the non-inferiority of LSVT-Loud delivered via telerehabilitation in subjects with Parkinson's Disease, while no pieces of evidence are still available on the efficacy of voice treatment delivered by telerehabilitation in MS. It is plausible to assume that LSVT-Loud delivered by telerehabilitation would be feasible and provide a beneficial effect also for MS non-inferior compared to the same treatment delivered in the clinic.
