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

This is an observational, non-controlled, multicentric, prospective study planned to be conducted in 66 subjects diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 20 centres of Argentina. Fatigue is recognized as one of the most frequent symptoms of MS with a high incidence in MS subjects. The link between fatigue and the degree of disability and other manifestations of the disease, such as depression has not been yet clearly understood. Hence, this study aims to understand the way in which fatigue impairs the quality of life (QoL) of MS subjects. This epidemiologic study can contribute to a better understanding of the way in which fatigue correlates with depression and the intensity with which both situations impact on the QoL of MS subjects.

The Study analyses the influence of selected factors on adherence to Betaferon treatment in patients with early multiple sclerosis (MS). The Investigator will document the relevant medical data regarding multiple sclerosis at every hospital visit, the patient will fill in two questionnaires at every visit: one about coping with the disease and the other about anxiety and depression. The Study particularly looks at the role of the support of the patient given by the multiple sclerosis nurses.The nurse will provide additional standardised information at start of treatment and will regularly phone the patient to ask standardised questions about the general condition with regard to the treatment, the disease and social support. At the end of the Study it will be assessed if the supportive measures and the standards in terms of adherence management in the hospital have some influence to increase long-term treatment adherence.

The primary objective of the study was to measure the change in bladder function as measured by Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI)-6 compared to baseline over 6 months of Tysabri treatment. Secondary objectives were to (i) measure change from baseline over 6 months of Tysabri treatment in the number of urinary incontinence episodes per participant per week, (ii) measure change from baseline over 6 months of Tysabri treatment in the number of micturitions per participant per day, (iii) measure change in The North American Research Committee on Multiple Sclerosis (NARCOMS) bladder/bowel subscale (PSB) scores from baseline over 6 months of Tysabri treatment and (iv) measure change in Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ)-7 scores from baseline over 6 months of Tysabri treatment.

The primary goal of the research cohort is to facilitate patient access to clinical trials testing new therapeutic interventions, or access to second- line treatments. Secondary objectives of the research cohort study are to obtain detailed clinical phenotyping and immunological analysis of blood samples, aiming to identify and validate biomarkers of disease activity and response to treatment and prognostic markers.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate relapse activity, as measured by the proportion of participants relapsed at 12 months, in participants with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who transition from Tysabri (BG00002) to Tecfidera (BG00012) in the real-world setting. The secondary objective is to further evaluate relapse activity, defined as annualized relapse rate (ARR), hospitalization and intravenous corticosteroid use, during the first year of Tecfidera treatment following transition from Tysabri treatment.

The aim of the study is to investigate reliability, validity, and responsiveness of the timed 360° turn test in patients with Multiple Sclerosis.

The main purpose of the study is to assess the fatigue, cognition, quality of life and disability correlation to MS-patients daily physical activity.

This study is observational, non-controlled, multicentric and prospective, without experimental intervention or control. As part of the usual management of the subjects, scales will be used for the assessment of the spasticity and the quality of life (QoL). The purpose of this observational study is to assess the incidence of spasticity in a group of subjects with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) in Argentina and the way it affects the QoL of these subjects.

The primary objective is to determine adherence to Rebif® New Formulation administered by RebiSmart during 12 weeks of therapy in patients with RRMS.

A phase IV, observational, survey-based study to measure compliance with Avonex® PS therapy in patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis, and to compare persistence on therapy 22 months after initial prescription of AVONEX® PS between patients enrolled in the current MS AllianceTM program versus patients enrolled in this program prior to October 2007.
