NCT07497399
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if the study drug will reduce brain and retinal atrophy by reducing inflammation and subsequently slowing neurodegeneration in people with Multiple Sclerosis. The main outcome for the trial is change in normalized brain parenchymal volume (nBPV), measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Researchers will compare outcomes from participants randomized to the study drug, versus participants randomized to placebo, to see if there are signs of slowed neurodegeneration (i.e., reduction in brain and retinal atrophy).
NCT06847724
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug CYB704, a proposed biosimilar to Ocrevus, works to treat multiple sclerosis in the same way as the reference product Ocrevus(R). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is CYB704 distributed in the body in the same way as the reference product (demonstration of pharmacokinetic (PK) similarity)? * Does have CYB704 the same treatment effect and side effects as the reference product? Researchers will compare CYB704 to a Ocrevus (Ocrevus-US and Ocrevus-EU). Participants will: * Take drug CYB704 or Ocrevus (Ocrevus-US and Ocrevus-EU) * Visit the clinic for at least 15 treatment visits, checkups and tests * Will undergo regular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations
NCT07545889
The MYTH-MS study is a multicenter prospective study investigating the occurrence of clinical relapses in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) in the absence of radiological activity on MRI. While MS relapses are typically associated with gadolinium-enhancing lesions on MRI, some patients present with acute neurological symptoms without radiological correlates, referred to as acute clinical events with stable MRI (ACES). The frequency, mechanisms, and clinical relevance of these events remain unclear due to limitations in previous studies. The primary objective is to determine the proportion of RRMS patients experiencing a relapse without gadolinium-enhancing lesions on early brain and spinal MRI. Secondary objectives include identifying clinical, radiological, biological, and psychological predictors, assessing neurologists' diagnostic accuracy, and evaluating clinical outcomes such as disability, cognition, and quality of life over a 6-month follow-up. A total of 136 patients with recent neurological exacerbations will be included. Each participant will undergo clinical assessment, cognitive and psychological evaluation, and early MRI, with follow-up at 6 months. An ancillary study will explore blood biomarkers (NfL, GFAP, and circulating DNA) to help differentiate true inflammatory relapses from ACES. This study aims to improve the understanding and diagnosis of MS exacerbations and to optimize patient management by reducing misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatments.
NCT07325292
This is a randomized, open-label, parallel, Phase 3 study with 2-arms for treatment. The purpose of this study is to evaluate SC administration of frexalimab every 4 weeks (q4w) compared to IV administration of frexalimab q4w in male and female participants with RMS and nrSPMS (aged 18 to 60 years at the time of enrollment). People diagnosed with MS are eligible for enrollment as long as they meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Study details include: The study intervention duration will be 48 weeks (12 months) for Parts A and B combined. Optional Part C will last until the initiation of a long term safety study for Frexalimab.The follow up duration after the end of study intervention (in case of discontinuation) will be 6 months. The number of scheduled visits (Parts A and B) will be 17 or 11 for participants receiving frexalimab SC or IV, respectively, with an on-site visit frequency of every month between Week 4 and Week 24 in Part A, then every 1 to 3 months in Part B, then every 6 months in Part C. Participants discontinuing treatment before the End of Study will have an additional 3 follow-up visits.
NCT05748015
The goal of this interventional non-pharmacological study is to evaluate the involvement of the autonomic nervous system in patients with relapsing-remitting and primary progressive multiple sclerosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is it possible to define the characteristics of dysautonomia to improve treatment on patients with multiple sclerosis through the management of conditions such as orthostatic hypotension or thermoregulation disorders that inevitably condition the patient's life and the response to rehabilitation ? * Does the severity of the functional alterations correlate with impairment of small somatic and autonomic cutaneous nerve fibers in patients with multiple sclerosis ? * How much the involvement of the autonomic nervous system affects the clinical history and progression of the disease ? * Do different clinical variants of multiple sclerosis manifest with different patterns of involvement of the sensory-autonomic nervous system ? Participants will be hospitalized in Maugeri Clinical Institute of Telese Terme for a rehabilitation treatment. Patients will perform a sensory and autonomic functional study and a morphological analysis of cutaneous nerves through skin biopsy. Researchers will compare results between the two groups (relapsing-remitting and primary progressive) and between patients and data from control subjects.
NCT07521995

Randomization will be implemented using SPSS 25.0 (IBM Corporation, Armonk, NY, USA) to ensure balanced group allocation. All outcome measures will be assessed at baseline and post-intervention.
NCT07507331
This observational study aims to evaluate the cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score Short Form (NBSS-SF) in adults with spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis who have neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction. Neurogenic bladder symptoms, such as urinary incontinence, urgency, and difficulties with urine storage or emptying, may negatively affect daily functioning and quality of life. In this study, the validity and reliability of the Turkish NBSS-SF will be examined, and convergent validity will be assessed through its relationship with the King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ) and the Short Form-12 (SF-12). In eligible participants, the scale will be administered again after 7 to 14 days. The aim of the study is to provide a valid and reliable Turkish patient-reported outcome measure for use in clinical practice and research.
NCT07521384
This prospective observational study collects real world data on participants receiving regenerative therapies administered internationally and delivered intranasally via the Kurve Therapeutics ViaNase device. The study does not assign treatment. Participants are enrolled after receiving, or electing to receive, therapy as part of routine clinical care outside the study. Participants are observed in one of three cohorts based on the therapy received: MuSE cell derived exosomes, MuSE stem cells, or combination therapy. The objective is to evaluate safety, tolerability, and changes in inflammatory biomarkers and clinical outcomes over time in a real world setting. The study also evaluates changes in inflammatory biomarkers, including serum tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), to better understand the biological effects of these therapies.

Open-label study to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment with ofatumumab in subjects transitioning from any fumarate-based RMS approved therapy or fingolimod due to breakthrough disease.
NCT07517185
The HiHat trial is a Phase 2 study aimed at evaluating the safety and feasibility of sequential treatment with rituximab and cladribine in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The study follows a prospective, open-label, single-arm design, with 60 RRMS patients receiving both treatments in a controlled regimen: two cycles of rituximab (1,000 mg each, biweekly) followed by two cycles of cladribine (30 mg per cycle for three days per cycle) spaced one month apart. Participants are monitored over 24 months through clinical assessments, MRI, and biomarker analyses. The primary objective is to evaluate whether the rate of serious adverse events (SAE) is acceptably low. Secondary objectives include assessing impacts on MRI lesion count, relapse rates, disability progression, quality of life, and safety.
NCT07514104
This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the efficacy of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) on plantar somatosensory function, knee joint proprioception, and spatiotemporal gait parameters in individuals diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The study included participants with a spasticity level below 1+, with the intervention group receiving ESWT three times per week over a 6-week period. To evaluate sensory changes, light touch thresholds were measured at six plantar sites-the heel, medial longitudinal arch, 1st and 5th metatarsal heads, and the 1st and 5th toes-using the Semmes-Weinstein monofilament kit. Additionally, two-point discrimination was assessed at the heel, and vibration duration was measured at the metatarsal heads using a 128 Hz tuning fork. Proprioception was quantified via the active knee joint reposition test in a closed kinetic chain position, measuring the absolute angular error at a 60° target angle. Postural stability and dynamic gait were objectively analyzed using the Win-Track platform and a reliable 3-step protocol to record parameters such as gait cycle duration, step length, cadence, and maximum plantar pressure. Static balance was further evaluated by recording the percentage of body weight transferred to each foot. By targeting both mechanoreceptor sensitivity and joint position sense, this 6-week ESWT intervention seeks to enhance the overall functional mobility and stability of MS patients.
NCT06433765
The primary objective of the study is to compare the prevalence rate of major congenital malformations (MCM) between 2 cohorts of pregnant participants with MS who are exposed to BRIUMVI® and who are unexposed to BRIUMVI®.
NCT07220252
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of ublituximab in participants ages 10 to less than (\<)18 years and body weight greater than or equal to (≥)25 kilograms (kg) to less than or equal to (≤)40 kg with RMS (Part A) and to evaluate the non-inferiority of ublituximab compared with fingolimod in pediatric RMS participants with body weight ≥ 25 kg (Part B). The study will further evaluate long-term safety and efficacy of ublituximab in RMS in pediatric participants during its extension period (Part C).
NCT07466823
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disease frequently associated with spasticity, which may lead to functional limitations and reduced quality of life. Although spasticity is common in MS, detailed descriptions of upper and lower extremity spasticity patterns are limited. A better understanding of spasticity patterns may help improve individualized rehabilitation and treatment planning. The aim of this study is to classify upper and lower extremity spasticity patterns in patients with multiple sclerosis and to investigate their association with quality of life. Adult patients with MS and clinical spasticity will be recruited from a tertiary care outpatient clinic. Spasticity will be evaluated using the Modified Ashworth Scale, and extremity postures will be recorded to define spasticity patterns. Functional performance will be assessed using the Timed 25-Foot Walk Test and the 9-Hole Peg Test. The impact of spasticity on quality of life will be evaluated using the Patient-Reported Impact of Spasticity Measure (PRISM). This prospective cross-sectional study is designed to provide a systematic description of spasticity patterns in patients with multiple sclerosis and to examine their relationship with functional outcomes and quality of life.

Music therapy is widely used in relational and rehabilitation settings. In addition to Neurologic Music Therapy and other music-based techniques, "sonification" approaches were recently introduced in the field of rehabilitation. The "sonification" can be defined as a properly selected set of sonorous-music stimuli are associated with patient movements mapping. In fact, the auditory-motor feedback can replace damaged proprioceptive circuits with a consequent improvement of the rehabilitation process. Interventions with "sonification" facilitate sensorimotor learning, proprioception and movements planning and execution improving global motor parameters. This study proposes the use of musical auditory cues which includes the melodic-harmonic component of the music. This kind of sonification makes the feedback pleasant and predictable as well as potentially effective. The investigators propose to apply and assess the effectiveness of this kind of sonification on gait training and other secondary outcomes in stroke, Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis population. Also, the investigators will assess the impact of "sonification" on the level of fatigue perceived during the rehabilitation process and on the quality of life. The study is a multicenter randomized controlled trial and will involve 120 patients that will undergo standard motor rehabilitation or the same rehabilitation but with the sonification support. The interventions will be evaluated at the baseline, after 10 sessions, after 20 sessions and at follow-up (one month after the end of the treatment). The assessment will include functional, motor, fatigue and quality of life evaluations. The collected data will be statistically processed.
NCT07507149
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the brain and spinal cord, often leading to unpredictable symptoms and significant emotional distress. Many people with MS experience anxiety, depression, and difficulties in coping with the challenges of the disease. Research has shown that effective coping-especially problem-focused coping-can reduce psychological distress and improve quality of life. However, access to psychological care can be limited, particularly in low-resource or mobility-restricted settings.This study, conducted at the Nehme and Therese Tohme Multiple Sclerosis Center at the American University of Beirut Medical Center (AUBMC), evaluated the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of an eight-week, online psychological intervention designed to enhance problem-solving and coping strategies in adults with MS living in Lebanon.The primary objective was to determine whether an online problem-solving coping strategies (PCS) intervention is feasible, acceptable, and well-tolerated for people with MS. The secondary objective was to assess the intervention's preliminary effects on problem-focused coping, depression, and anxiety.
