Active clinical trials for "Sclerosis"

The purpose of this study is to collect real-world data and to gain insights about long-term usage of ozanimod (Zeposia ®), its effect on well-defined outcome parameters comprising participant-relevant outcomes, as well as quality of life, effectiveness, and incidence of adverse events.

The Swiss Multiple Sclerosis Registry is a national, patient-centered registry with the aim to document the epidemiology of multiple sclerosis (MS), as well as the quality of life of persons living with MS in Switzerland.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether nebulized RNS60 is effective in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

A prospective and retrospective cohort study of about five years will be performed on blood and cerebrospinal fluid samples taken for diagnostic reasons from recruited patients within the Neuromed Neurology Unit. Subjects with other chronic neurodegenerative diseases such as Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), and healthy subjects subjected to blood sampling and / or lumbar puncture for clinical reasons will be recruited As control groups.

The objective of this trial is to measure the changes in neural activities during tDCS session using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Participants (N=60) (20 Healthy Controls and 40 participants with neurological disorders, ie. multiple sclerosis) will be recruited to complete self-report measures and a brief cognitive assessment and then undergo an hour long stand-alone MRI scan while simultaneously undergoing tDCS stimulation. Methodology for this study is the administration of 15-minutes of of active tDCS during MRI acquisition compared to time without active tDCS.

This study will evaluate relaxin (RLX) levels in patients with multiple sclerosis.

B Lymphocytes are thought to play an important role in the pathophysiology of systemic sclerosis. In this study, the profibrosing role of B lymphocytes of patients with systemic sclerosis will be evaluated.

Prospective, single center, open label, phase I/IIa escalating dose study. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of escalating doses of SCM-010 in subjects with SPMS.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) affects approximately 2.3 million patients worldwide, with a global median prevalence of 33 per 100,000. MS is diagnosed at an average of 30 years and affects twice as many women as men. MS is traditionally diagnosed by the presentation of lesions of the central nervous system, disseminated in time and in space, proven by clinical examination and magnetic resonance imaging. Several anatomical parameters in the eye, both vascular and neural, have been found to be altered in MS patients. Because of its unique optical properties, the eye offers the possibility of the non-invasive assessment of both structural and functional alterations in neuronal tissue. As the neuro-retina is part of the brain, it does not come as a surprise that neuro-degenerative changes in the brain are accompanied by structural and possibly also functional changes in the neuro-retina and the ocular vasculature. The current study seeks to test the hypothesis that beside the known anatomical changes, also functional changes can be detected in the retina of patients with MS. For this purpose, flicker light induced hyperemia will be measured in the retina as a functional test to assess the coupling between neural activity and blood flow. Further, structural parameters such as retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and function parameters such as ocular blood flow and retinal oxygenation will be assessed and compared to age and sex matched controls.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Copaxone subcutaneous injection syringe (hereinafter referred to as Copaxone) in patients with multiple sclerosis in the routine clinical setting.
