Autologous Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Multiple Sclerosis

Relapsing-Remitting Multiple SclerosisSecondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

This study evaluates the effect of cryopreserved autologous adult bone-marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSC) in patients with active multiple sclerosis, compared to placebo. Patients will be allocated to one of the 2 treatment arms (BM-MSC or placebo)and at month 6, the treatment will be crossed to receive the other product. The objective is to assess the safety of a single infusion BM-MSC, and to explore its efficacy in these patients. Patients will be evaluated at month 12 and will be followed-up for a total of 3 years.

Study to Explore the Mechanism of Action of Ocrelizumab and B-Cell Biology in Participants With...

Relapsing Multiple SclerorsisMultiple Sclerosis1 more

This is an open-label, multicenter, biomarker study designed to be hypothesis-generating in order to better understand the mechanism of action of ocrelizumab and B-cell biology in RMS or PPMS. The study will be conducted in two cohorts i.e. RMS cohort (4 arm group) and PPMS cohort (one arm group). RMS cohort: Ocrelizumab will be administered as two intravenous (IV) infusions of 300 milligrams (mg) on Days 1 and 15. Subsequent doses will be given as single 600-mg infusions at Weeks 24 and 48. Participants will be randomized in 1:1:1 ratio to receive lumbar puncture (LP) post-treatment at Week 12, 24, or 52 following the first dose of ocrelizumab in three arm groups. A fourth RMS arm with delayed treatment start (Arm 4 [control group]) will not be a part of the randomization and will be recruited separately, wherein treatment with ocrelizumab will be delayed for 12 weeks from pre-treatment baseline. PPMS cohort: Ocrelizumab 600 mg will be administered as two 300-mg IV infusions separated by 14 days at a scheduled interval of every 24 weeks. Participants will receive a LP at the start of the study before dosing with ocrelizumab and second LP at Week 52 following the first dose of ocrelizumab. A long-term extension will be conducted for participants that complete the study and continue to receive ocrelizumab. Treatment with ocrelizumab in the entire study will continue for approximately 4.5 years after the first infusion.

A Trial of Bile Acid Supplementation in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis

Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

This study aims to identify the safety and tolerability of bile acid supplementation in patients with progressive Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Participants will also be assessed for an impact of the bile acid on their immune system and gut microbiome. Half of the participants will receive the bile acid tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) and half will receive placebo. The investigators believe participants who take TUDCA will have normalization of blood bile acid levels, a normalization of abnormal immune response and a normalization of the gut microbiome.

A Randomised Controlled Trial of Neuroprotection With Lamotrigine in Secondary Progressive Multiple...

Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

A present there is no safe treatment for reducing rate at which disability worsens in people with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. Recent research has suggested the possibility that drugs that act by blocking the entry of sodium into nerve cells can protect nerve fibres in the brain and spinal cord. In this trial, the investigators will test whether one such drug, called lamotrigine, can prevent damage to nerve fibres and reduce the rate at which MS worsens. The period of treatment in the trial will run for 2 years.

Idebenone for Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple SclerosisPrimary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Background: - The Idebenone in Patients With Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (IPPoMS) trial tested a new drug for multiple sclerosis. In the IPPoMS trial, participants took either idebenone or placebo. Researchers want to give idebenone to all participants for 1 year. It is still not certain whether idebenone can slow the progression of multiple sclerosis, but this study may help answer that question. Objectives: To provide idebenone to all participants on the IPPoMS trial. To collect data on the safety and effectiveness of idebenone for primary progressive multiple sclerosis. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have completed 3 years in the IPPoMS trial. Design: The first study visit for this trial will happen on the same day as the last visit for the IPPoMS trial. Participants will provide a blood samples and will have a lumbar puncture. They will also receive a new supply of idebenone to take three times a day with food. They will keep a diary to report on any side effects. After this first treatment visit, participants will have two follow-up visits to the NIH 6 months apart. These visits may be scheduled over multiple days. Participants will provide blood and urine samples. They will also have imaging studies of the brain and spine. Participants will have phone calls with the study researchers to provide updates on their condition and any side effects.
