Active clinical trials for "Multiple Sclerosis, Relapsing-Remitting"

This study will investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a new formulation of glatiramer acetate administered at 20 mg/0.5 ml daily versus placebo in patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS).

This study evaluated the effect of an individualized web-based physical training in fingolimod -treated patients.

Background: - People with multiple sclerosis (MS) get lesions in their brain and spinal cord. These cause neurological symptoms and sometimes disability. Researchers want to see if a blood pressure drug called guanabenz can repair lesions and help people with MS. Objective: - To see if guanabenz is safe and well tolerated in people with MS. Eligibility: - People 18 55 years old with MS who have taken glatiramer acetate for the past year. Design: Participants will be screened in a separate protocol. For 2 months, they will be examined and have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. This will decide if they are in the Stable or Active MS study group. The study will last 5 months. There will be up to 11 visits, 5 overnight. Visit 1: overnight stay at the clinic: Medical history and physical exam. Health questionnaire Bladder ultrasound scan Brain MRI Electrocardiogram (EKG) to measure heart electrical activity Blood will be drawn through an intravenous (IV) line. Participants may have tests of strength, muscle tone, and movement. They will get their first dose of the study drug, a tablet taken once a day. Participants will take the study drug at home and keep a medicine diary. The dose will slowly increase. Each time, participants will stay overnight at the clinic. They will have a physical exam, EKG, MRI, and IV blood draw. Visit 6: Participants will have a physical exam, MRI, and blood drawn. They will get a schedule to slowly lower their drug dose and stop taking guanabenz. Participants will have 2 final visits. They will have a physical exam, EKG, MRI, and IV blood draw.

Noninvasive brain stimulations (NIBS) will be used in MS patients with cognitive impairments to enhance their cognitive aptitudes.

This study will enroll about 66 participants who experienced a relapse of RRMS that steroids did not help. The doctor will put participants into a treatment group. Each person has an equal chance of being in either one of two groups (like flipping a coin). One group will receive a shot of study medicine (called Acthar Gel) under their skin every day for 14 days. The other group will receive a shot every day for 14 days, too, but there is no medicine in it (called placebo).

The purpose of this study is to test MK0812 on disease activity in patients with relapsing-remitting MS. Disease modifying activity will be assessed by measurement of brain lesions via MRI brain scans and an open label extension is offered.

This project aims to analyze ocular motility problems, visual processing speed and microperimetry, and their relationship with consolidated retinal structural biomarkers (optical coherence tomography, OCT) in patients with Multiple Sclerosis w/w reading complaints comparing with healthy subjects.

This is a Phase 2, randomized, rater-blinded, 5-arm, parallel-group trial that will test 4 doses of plovamer acetate against the active comparator Copaxone in subjects with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS). The trial will be conducted on an outpatient basis for minimum treatment duration of 40 weeks.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the improvement in spontaneous recovery from clinical deficits at the time of an acute relapse in RR-MS participants already receiving interferon (IFN) beta 1a with D-aspartate (versus placebo) as add-on therapy.

Single site, open label, randomized design in patients with relapsing forms of Multiple Sclerosis. At the Screening Visit, the patient will be given a diary containing the MAGIS scale to be completed once a day for the first two weeks while on Dimethyl Fumarate (DMF), including the titration period. After two weeks or if a patient experiences 3 or more consecutive days of GI symptoms in any category of ≥3.5, the patient will return for a Baseline Visit. The MAGIS diary will be reviewed by the coordinator. Any patient who has reported an average MAGIS score of greater than or equal to 3.5 in at least one of the key categories will be randomized to a standard therapy or treatment arm. Patients who report a MAGIS of less than 3.5 during this period will be terminated from the study at this visit. Patients with an average reported MAGIS of greater than 6.5 at Baseline will be placed in the treatment arm. Patients who are randomized to the treatment arm will be instructed to take 125 mg simethicone and one tablespoon of a high fat food (peanut butter) 10 minutes prior to each DMF dose. If the average MAGIS score is greater than 3.5 in the diarrhea category they will also be instructed to take 2 mg loperamide three times daily. Patients randomized to the standard therapy arm will be instructed to follow the normal dosing regimen for DMF with a food bolus of their choice prior to dosing. If severe symptoms (MAGIS >6.5) are noted at any time post randomization in any MAGIS category, crossover to the treatment arm will be allowed. Both groups will be asked to rate their GI symptoms over the past 24 hours using the MAGIS scale once daily. Both treatment arms will be observed for 6 weeks. MAGIS will be recorded once daily. Patients will return to the clinic at Week 3 and Week 6/End of Treatment for diary and compliance review. After Week 6, patients will be instructed to return to a standard therapy. MAGIS will be recorded for one more week and collected at Week 7/End of Study.
