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

Primary Objective is to assess the safety of extended treatment with Daclizumab High Yield Process (DAC HYP, BIIB019) monotherapy in participants with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Secondary Objective is to assess the long-term immunogenicity of DAC HYP and to assess the durability of response to DAC HYP in preventing multiple sclerosis (MS) relapse, slowing disability progression, and reducing new MS lesion formation in this study population.

The "SWiss Atorvastatin and Interferon-Beta 1b Trial In Multiple Sclerosis - Follow up Study" is the follow up study of the "SWiss Atorvastatin and Interferon Beta-1b Trial In Multiple Sclerosis (SWABIMS)" (see http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Identifier: NCT00942591) SWABIMS evaluated the efficacy, safety and tolerability of atorvastatin 40 mg in addition to interferon-beta 1b compared to interferon-beta 1b monotherapy in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis for 15 month. The SWABIMS Follow up study observes patients that finish the SWABIMS study for another 12 month with ongoing unchanged medication.

Balance impairment is a common and very disabling disturbance in people with Multiple Sclerosis. The efficacy of pharmacotherapy in treating balance impairment in MS is poorly documented in literature. Although literature dealing with the rehabilitation of balance impairment in MS is very scant, the preliminary data reports show very promising results. The present project could have a positive impact on balance and gait ability, disability, fear of falling, risk of falls and quality of life of patients with Multiple Sclerosis.

The study is an investigator-run, open-label Phase 1 safety study of autologous mesenchymal stem cell transplantation, involving approximately 24 ambulatory participants with relapsing forms of MS (approximately equal numbers with relapsing-remitting and secondary progressive/ progressive relapsing MS) and evidence of involvement of the anterior afferent visual system.

The purpose of this study is to test if dirucotide is safe and effective in treating patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis.

Phase 1 study to assess the safety and biological activity of ATX-MS-1467 in patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. This will be an open label upward dose titration involving injections on 9 occasions, each two weeks apart. After dosing is complete there will be a 22 week follow up period. Blood samples will be drawn throughout the study to monitor safety and the body's response to the injections and MRI scans will be performed on several occasions to follow the course of the multiple sclerosis during the trial.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common neurological disorder causing disability in young adults. The management of MS-patients requires treatment with disease-modifying agents, monoclonal antibodies such as natalizumab or immunosuppressants. Natalizumab showed good efficacy and is approved for treatment of relapsing MS with a number of restrictions due to safety issues. Cognitive data related to natalizumab treatment are still scarce. Interferon-beta-1b is approved for high-frequency, subcutaneous (sc) administration in the treatment of multiple sclerosis. It reduces the relapse rate, severity, hospitalisation and the disease activity as seen on MRI. This is a pilot study to explore the concept of de-escalating natalizumab treatment to interferon-beta-1b e.o.d compared to continuous treatment with natalizumab in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis previously treated with natalizumab for 12 months. The study is designed as prospective, controlled, randomized, rater-blinded, parallel-group, two arm, mono-centric including patients of the Ticino Cohort. One arm will be treated with Interferon-beta 1b 250mcg given subcutaneously every other day, the other with Natalizumab 300 mg given intravenously (i.v.), every four weeks. The treatment duration is 12 months, the follow-up period 12 months. The time to first on-study relapse will be compared between the to treatment arms (primary outcome). Other efficacy parameter include clinical and radiological parameters, patient reported outcome on quality of life and fatigue. Safety is assessed by reports of adverse events.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety profile of BG00012 (dimethyl fumarate). Secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate the long-term efficacy of BG00012 using clinical endpoints and disability progression, to evaluate further the long-term effects of BG00012 on multiple sclerosis (MS) brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans in participants who had MRI scans as part of Studies 109MS301 (NCT00420212) and 109MS302 (NCT00451451) and to evaluate the long-term effects of BG00012 on health economics assessments and the visual function test.

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term therapy with 3 dose levels of oral CCI-779 administered to subjects with relapsing MS who completed study 3066A2-205-WW.

The trial will study 2 doses of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (IGIV-C) for the number of relapses that occur in a 1 year treatment period.
