Disease Modifying Therapies Withdrawal in Inactive Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis Patients...

Multiple Sclerosis

Further controlled and randomized prospective studies in Multiple sclerosis, analyzing the potential impact of treatment discontinuation on disability progression, focal disease activity and quality of life are needed. The optimum patient age and duration of inactive SPMS before treatment withdrawal and the monitoring procedures also need to be specified, the ultimate goal being to provide evidence-based recommendations for clinical practice. Following the previous retrospective experience, we decided to drive a multicenter prospective study in France based on the hypothesis that stopping disease modifying therapy will not induce an increased risk of disability progression and relapse in selected SPMS patients (older patients without lesion activity) but will improve the quality of life and may reduce treatment-related costs.

31P-MRS Imaging to Assess the Effects of CNM-Au8 on Impaired Neuronal Redox State in Multiple Sclerosis....

Multiple Sclerosis

REPAIR-MS is a single-center open label, sequential group, investigator and patient blinded study to assess the CNS metabolic effects, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CNM-Au8 in patients who have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) within fifteen (15) years of Screening. The primary endpoint for this study changes from baseline to week 12 in CNS metabolic changes, based on 31P-MRSimaging.

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Ocrelizumab in Adults With Primary Progressive Multiple...

Multiple SclerosisPrimary Progressive

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab ( Ocrevus®) compared with placebo in participants with primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS), including participants later in their disease course. This study focuses on upper limit disability progression. This study will consist of the following phases: screening, double-blind treatment, follow-up 1 (FU1), an optional open-label extension (OLE), follow-up 2 (FU2), and B-cell monitoring (BCM).

Anakinra for the Treatment of Chronically Inflamed White Matter Lesions in Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the central nervous system (CNS). People who have MS may have lesions that form on parts of the CNS, such as the brain. Some of these lesions may be inflamed for a long time. This causes MS to progress. There is no treatment for these lesions. Researchers believe that a drug that decreases inflammation can help. Objective: To see if a drug called anakinra can help clear inflammation in MS brain lesions. Eligibility: People 18 and older with MS and at least one white matter lesion. Design: Participants will be screened with one or more Neuroimmunology Clinic protocols. Participants will have a medical history and physical exam. They will have blood and urine tests. They will have a lumbar puncture. For this, a needle is inserted between the bones in the back, and cerebrospinal fluid is removed. They will also have an MRI of the brain. The MRI scanner is a cylinder surrounded by a strong magnetic field. Participants will lie on a table that slides in and out of the scanner. Participants will repeat the above procedures throughout the study. Participants will get their first dose of anakinra at the clinic. They will administer the rest of the doses themselves, by injection under the skin. Participants will track their daily dosage electronically or in a written drug diary. Participants will have 4 visits while taking the drug. At each visit, sharps boxes and empty vials will be collected. Participants will have 2 follow-up visits after completing treatment. The study will last 28 weeks.

Home-based Action Observation Treatment With Virtual-reality for Arm Rehabilitation in People With...

Multiple Sclerosis

Action Observation Treatment (AOT) is a rehabilitative strategy which has been proposed as a promising approach to improve motor performance in neurological conditions, including multiple sclerosis (MS). In this clinical trial, the investigators aim to explore the role of a home-based AOT with virtual reality (VR) in improving upper limb motor function in people with MS (PwMS). The objectives are: To compare the effects of home-based VR-AOT versus VR-landscape observation (LO) on upper limb motor performance; To measure brain network functional changes (functional plasticity) and structural variations of gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) (structural plasticity) using advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques following VR-AOT and VR-LO; To study the correlations between MRI changes and clinical improvements and the predictors of VR-AOT efficacy. All participants will undergo treatment sessions for 3 weeks (5 consecutive days/week, total=15 sessions lasting 30 minutes each). Those in the VR-AOT group will observe, imagine and execute two upper limb motor tasks in each session. Those in the VR-LO group will perform the same tasks, but they will observe inanimate landscapes beforehand instead.

ChariotMS - Cladribine to Halt Deterioration in People With Advanced Multiple Sclerosis

Advanced Multiple SclerosisProgressive Multiple Sclerosis

MS is a chronic inflammatory and degenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS) affecting more than 120,000 people in the UK.and 2.5 million people worldwide. Without disease modifying treatment (DMT),the majority of people with MS (pwMS) will develop significant disability within 10 years of onset, and 50% will require wheelchair assistance within 20 years. convenient, highly effective and CNS penetrant DMT for patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (pwRMS) administered in short (8-10 days/year over 2 years) treatment courses. It effectively depletes B cells, particularly Memory B cells, a likely key mechanism of disease control in MS. Cladribine is the investigational product in this study as it not currently used to treat patients with an EDSS of 6.5 - 8.5. This is a multi-centre, randomised double-blind placebo-controlled phase IIb to test cladribine tablets (MAVENCLAD®) (3.5mg/kg over 24 months) for safety, efficacy, and cost effectiveness, and to advance mechanistic understanding of its action in people with advanced MS (pwAMS).
