Active clinical trials for "Sclerosis"

This is a Phase 2 multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel-group trial to assess the efficacy and safety of 2 once-daily oral doses of IMU-838 (vidofludimus calcium), a small molecule inhibitor of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), 30 mg/day and 45 mg/day in the main study, cohort 1 (and 10 mg/day for the patients in the cohort 2 substudy), in patients with RRMS and evidence of active disease. The trial consists of a screening period, a blinded 24-week main treatment period, and an optional initially blinded, then open-label extended treatment period of up to 9.5 years. About 40 centers are planned to participate in Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, and Poland; potential additional centers in Hungary and Croatia were not used. The study started with 195 patients in the main group (cohort 1) planned to be randomized 1:1:1 to treatment with 30 mg/day or 45 mg/day IMU-838, or placebo (65 patients each) in the main treatment period. During the extended treatment period, patients were initially re-randomized so that patients previously on placebo were re-randomized 1:1 to treatment with 30 g/day or 45 mg/day IMU-838, all other patients were re-randomized to the same treatment they previously received. With approval of Protocol Version 3.0, a sub-study patient group (cohort 2) has been added with up to 60 patients, randomized to placebo or 10 mg IMU-838 for 24 weeks after which the option is available to continue into the extended treatment period and the recommended dose of 30 mg/day. However, based on discussion between investigator and patient 45 mg/day IMU-838/day may also be used.

This is a multi-site randomized clinical trial comparing 3 modes of delivering the Managing Fatigue course for reducing fatigue in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). The primary hypothesis is that the teleconference and internet versions of the course will be noninferior to the one-on-one, in person version in terms of the primary outcome of fatigue and secondary outcome of quality of life.

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate a new drug Pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy, for Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma. The chemotherapy regimen is called "ICE" and includes three drugs: ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide. Pembrolizumab is currently Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for the treatment of some patients with melanoma, lung cancer and head and neck cancer, but has not yet been approved for the treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma. The 'ICE' regimen of chemotherapy is currently FDA approved for the treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma, but has not yet been investigated in combination with pembrolizumab for this disease. For patients who have a relapse of their Hodgkin's lymphoma, retreatment with chemotherapy followed by a stem cell transplant is recommended. We know that obtaining a complete remission (not able to detect any disease on scans) is very important prior to proceeding to the stem cell transplant. Patients with negative scans have a lower chance of the disease coming back and a higher chance of achieving a long-term cure.

Treatment extension study for ALS/MND patients who participated in phase 1 study CMD-2016-001, completed assessments following six 28-day cycles of treatment, and whom the Investigator considers would benefit from continued CuATSM treatment.

Chronic pain is one of the most prevalent, disabling and persistent symptoms affecting people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Different nonpharmacological treatments are known to be beneficial for managing pain, including cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness based cognitive therapy. This study compares these two non-pharmacological approaches to pain management in people with Multiple Sclerosis. The purpose of this study is to see if these treatments can help decrease pain and other outcomes (e.g., sleep, fatigue) in persons with Multiple Sclerosis. The study will determine who benefits from these treatments and if these treatments can be given effectively by videoconference.

This is a Phase III, multi-centre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Tauroursodeoxycholic (TUDCA) as add-on Treatment in Patients Affected by Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ATA188 as a monotherapy in Parts 1 and 2, to determine the recommended Part 2 dose (RP2D) of ATA188 as monotherapy in Part 1, and to evaluate the effect of ATA188 treatment on clinical disability, as assessed by confirmed Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) improvement at 12 months in Part 2 in participants with progressive forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) (primary progressive multiple sclerosis [PPMS] and secondary progressive multiple sclerosis [SPMS]).

The study AC-058B301 (OPTIMUM; NCT02425644) has been designed to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ponesimod in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). The AC-058B303 study is the long-term extension for the core study AC-058B301. The purpose of this long term extension of the core study AC-058B301 is to characterize the long-term safety, tolerability, and control of disease of ponesimod 20 mg in subjects with RMS.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of the Swank Diet (low saturated fat) and the Wahls Elimination Diet (modified paleo) on fatigue levels in individuals with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis who have documented fatigue. Participants will follow their usual diet for 12 weeks and then be randomly assigned to follow one of the two diets for 24 weeks.

A safety study of ANK-700 in patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis. The study has two parts: Part A - first in human study in which patients receive a single dose of ANK-700 Part B - patients will receive three doses of either ANK-700 or placebo
