Active clinical trials for "Multiple Sclerosis"

The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate pharmacokinetic bioequivalence of ofatumumab injected by Pre-filled Syringe (PFS) versus Auto-Injector (AI) devices and thereby establish a bridge between the ongoing Phase 3 program and the to-be-marketed drug-device combinations

It is stated that the affected cognitive functions in Multiple Sclerosis are learning, memory, attention, speed of information processing, visuospatial skills, and executive functions. The speed of information processing, visual learning and memory are the most frequently affected components in MS. For this reason, approaches to increase cognitive functions by activating neuroprotective mechanisms such as exercise in patients with MS are needed. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of combined exercise training on cognitive functions in patients with MS.

This national, open-label study is designed to give complementary efficacy, safety and patient reported outcomes (PROs) data in participants with active relapsing forms of MS. Participants will receive a maximum of 2 treatment cycles of ocrelizumab infusions: an initial dose of two 300 milligram (mg) infusions separated by 14 days followed by one single infusion of 600 mg ocrelizumab 24 weeks after the first infusion. Disease activity is determined by clinical relapses and/or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) activity.

To assess safety and tolerability of patients converting from approved Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS) Disease Modifying Therapies (DMTs) to siponimod.

This study assessed the efficacy and safety of ADS-5102 (at daily doses of 137 mg or 274 mg) compared with placebo in MS patients with walking impairment.

This study will test the effectiveness of an emotional processing intervention in individuals with MS in a double blind placebo controlled randomized clinical trial. We will utilize an intervention which has been successfully used in other populations, including Schizophrenia and Traumatic Brain Injury. Our pilot data shows that this intervention is effective in individuals with MS as well

The relationship between fatigue and balance was established. Fatigue was correlated with 8 parameters of balance scales. Moreover, there was a strong correlation between the level of fatigue from one side and depression, quality of life and disease severity from the other side.Fatigue seems to be the main problem in patients with MS which may influence other signs and symptoms such as balance.

Sensor-based technological therapy devices may be good candidates for neuromotor rehabilitation of people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), especially for treating upper extremities function limitations. The sensor-based device rehabilitation is characterized by interactive therapy games with audio-visual feedback that allows training the movement of shoulders, elbows and wrist, measuring the strength and the active range of motion of upper limb, registering data in an electronic database in order to quantitatively monitoring measures and therapy progress. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of sensor-based motor rehabilitation in add-on to the conventional neurorehabilitation, on increasing the upper limbs functions of MS patients. The training consisting of twelve sessions of upper limb training, was compared with twelve sessions of upper limb sensory-motor training, without robotic support. Both rehabilitation programs were performed for 40 minutes three times a week, for 4 weeks, in addition to the conventional therapy. All patients were evaluated at baseline (T0) and after 4 weeks of training (T1)

Forty individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) will be randomly assigned to a 6-week web-based cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia intervention (wCBT-I) or to wCBT-I plus biweekly support meetings with research personnel via phone or video. Questionnaires will be used to assess sleep quality, fatigue, and satisfaction. Recruitment, retention, attrition, adherence, and safety information will also be collected. This study is significant because addressing insomnia symptoms through CBT-I could be a low-cost, low-risk, non-pharmacological options for improving sleep quality and MS symptoms in individuals with MS. This study is innovative because CBT-I has never been delivered via a web-based application to individuals with MS which may increase access to services.

This is a pragmatic clinical trial that aims to determine the effect of tDCS on symptomatic fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients. This is a randomized, blinded, sham-controlled study design to determine the effect of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on MS participants to reduce feelings of fatigue.120 participants with MS and clinically-significant fatigue (as defined by a score of >36 on the Fatigue Severity Scale) will be recruited to participate in either an active or sham treatment condition.
