Active clinical trials for "Multiple Sclerosis"

The primary objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety and impact on disease activity and progression of Tysabri in participants with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) in a clinical practice setting.

This clinical trial compares the relative efficacy of treating acute exacerbations of relapsing forms of Multiple Sclerosis with equivalent doses of oral and intravenous (IV) methylprednisolone. This is a randomized, blinded, multi-center study.

The investigators principal hypothesis is that INO and optic neuritis are objective, quantitative, and reproducible models for corroborating the hypothesis that changes in core body temperature are associated with the reversible and stereotypic decay in axonal conduction and that ACTHAR can serve to prevent such changes. The application of ocular motor and optic nerve measures appears to constitute a useful paradigm to detect and monitor responses to therapeutic strategies that stabilize nerve cell membranes in response to temperature induced decay in axonal conduction mechanisms, with implications on activities of daily life that are dependent upon vision (reading, driving, walking, work performance).

The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the immunogenicity of Avonex® (interferon beta-1a) 30 mcg when administered subcutaneously (SC) to interferon-naïve participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis. The secondary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Avonex® 30 mcg when administered SC to interferon-naïve subjects with relapsing MS.

To make laquinimod 0.6 mg available for all subjects who completed the placebo-controlled MS-LAQ-302 study according to the protocol and to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and effect on disease course of daily oral laquinimod 0.6 mg in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether BMS-188667 will decrease multiple sclerosis disease activity on MRI examinations, as well as decrease the rate of clinical MS exacerbations, compared to placebo

The present study will investigate the correlation between objective and subjective cognition in multiple sclerosis. The study will also investigate the impact of covariates such as fatigue and depression, the relationship with the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and brain volumetrics as measured on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Additionally, the study will provide insights into patients' experiences with cognition, and the usability of the used objective cognitive assessments.

The primary objective of this study is to estimate the incidence of Anti-Natalizumab Antibodies (ANAs) in the cohort of natalizumab-naïve and other MS monoclonal antibody (mAb)-naive participants who start receiving natalizumab subcutaneous (SC) injections. The secondary objectives of this study are to estimate the proportion of participants detected with ANAs when switched from natalizumab intravenous (IV) to natalizumab SC (natalizumab-experienced cohort); to evaluate serious adverse events (SAEs), including injection reactions and hypersensitivity reactions, by ANA status and to assess the proportion of participants who had MS relapse, by ANA status.

The goal of this non-interventional, observational study is to determine whether cortical pathology can be slowed down by use of ocrelizumab.

The investigators seek to test whether incorporating the scheduled dosing of a bisacodyl 10 mg rectal suppository every other day improves bowel-related symptoms in patients with multiple sclerosis. Patients will be randomized to receive either a placebo suppository or bisacodyl suppository dosed every other day for 4 weeks.
