Managed Access Program (MAP) for Patients Diagnosed With Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis...

Multiple Sclerosis

The purpose of this MAP Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to siponimod for eligible patients diagnosed with Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis with active disease. The patient's Treating Physician should follow the suggested treatment guidelines and comply with all local health authority regulations. The requesting Treating Physician should submit a request for access to the drug (often referred to as Compassionate Use) to Novartis which will be reviewed and assessed by the medical team experienced with the drug and indication.

Deciphering the Role of the Gut Microbiota in Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease that affects the nervous system and results in a wide range of signs and symptoms including physical and cognitive problems. Recent evidence demonstrates that interactions between the host immune system and the commensal gut microbiota have a key role in the development of the disease. However, the natures of these interactions are poorly studied, and the set of bacteria with pathogenic or protective potential are unknown. Here, the investigators propose a multi-pronged approach to deciphering the role of the microbiota in MS, by developing microbiome-based machine learning algorithms aimed at: (1) distinguishing healthy individuals from MS patients; (2) predicting the time since the onset of MS in relation to disease activity by predicting next relapse and neurological progression; (3) identifying microbiome signatures that characterize the relapse state; (4) distinguishing various MS phenotypes in relation to blood and microbiome transcriptome signatures; (5) predicting response to various immunomodulatory treatments in relation to blood and microbiome transcriptome signatures. Overall, these studies should establish the role of the microbiome in multiple sclerosis, resulting in a set of non-invasive tools for characterization of the disease; identification of the kinetics of MS using microbiome as a readout; and allowing the prediction of individuals prone to MS based on their microbiome and in relation to their protein expression. These new set of diagnostic and predictive tools may thus add a novel and unexplored dimension to the study of the disease that may lead in the future to new therapeutic avenues based on designing microbiome-targeted interventions.

Depression and Facial Identity Recognition Abilities in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple SclerosisDepression

Cognitive and emotional disorders are often encountered in multiple sclerosis (MS) cases: depressive and bipolar disorders are twice as frequent as in general population. Cognitive disorders, (particularly attention and dysexecutive disorders), appear in early stages of the disease's evolution, in cases of lightly or moderately disabled patients, with a recent evolution, with a "minor" form of the disease, even in Clinically Isolated Syndromes (CIS). Emotional disturbances are essentially linked to mood disorders of depression-type. Last ten years, emotional processing in multiple sclerosis cases was investigated in various trials, especially regarding the recognition of facial and emotional expressions. These studies reported data, supporting an impairment of the perception of emotion, particularly those with negative valence. The objective of this study is to investigate the link between recognition of facial and emotional expressions and depression in multiple sclerosis cases.

A Multicenter Observational Study to Evaluate Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis in Brazil

Multiple Sclerosis

Pediatric Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease defined by multiple episodes of demyelination of the central nervous system (CNS) separated by time and space as specified in adults not explained by acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). Several studies have indicated that at least 5% of MS patients are in the pediatric population, but no prospective study was performed in Brazil. There are particular characteristics of Pediatric MS that differs from the adult population and have been focus of interest in the last years. However, we still lack high evidence data, specially concerning treatment, of this age group. This is an observational non-interventional multicenter study in pediatric MS patients in which participating subjects will be characterized by their clinical, MRI and immunological features. In this observational study, we will select 8 MS centers in Brazil to recruit at least 100 pediatric patients currently followed on each center with idiopathic inflammatory CNS disorders over a 2-year study period. We will collect retrospective and prospective clinical and MRI data to determine the proportion of patients who fulfill the International Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis Study Group (IPMSSG) criteria for MS,7 especially on those below 10 years where the use of McDonald 2010 criteria is not recommended routinely. Following the inclusion on the study, subjects will be followed for at least 2 years. All subjects enrolled in this study will have serum collected to test autoantibodies including anti-AQP4 and anti-MOG using cell-based assays with transfected cells.8 Pediatric patients with positive testing for these autoantibodies will be analyzed separately. Exploratory MRI sub-study In 10 patients recruited at Hospital São Lucas PUCRS, we will perform an exploratory substudy with advanced MRI using q-space diffusion protocol on a 3-Tesla MRI (GE Signa HDx 3.0T, General Electric, Milwaukee, WI, USA) and a 8-channel head coil to visualize remyelinating brain MS lesions. Normalized leptokurtic diffusion (NLD) data will be acquired using diffusion-weighted echo planar imaging. All MRI scans from this exploratory study will be performed at the Brain Institute of Rio Grande do Sul (BraIns). Only patients with previous brain demyelinating lesions will be included in this exploratory sub-study.

Multimodel Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)of Multiple Sclerosis and Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum...

Multiple SclerosisNeuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders

To investigate multimodel MRI exploring the pathophysiology of multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders. The investigators use multimodel MRI to evaluate the extent of blood-brain barrier and white matter fiber tracts destruction , iron deposition and cerebral blood flow of associated regions in multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders using contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging , quantitative susceptibility mapping, diffusion tension imaging, and arterial spin labeling with post labeling delay of 2.0 seconds. Transfer constant volume , magnetic susceptibility, cerebral blood flow and fractional anisotropy(FA) value were measured in lesion and normal appearing white matter.
