Participate in a Clinical Trial
Without the participation of people with MS, it would be impossible to develop new and better therapies and other interventions.

Postoperative Relapses in MS Patients
The aim of the study is to record any relapses during one year postoperatively in patients and parturients diagnosed with MS who received general or regional anesthesia

Power Training in Older Multiple Sclerosis Patients
The study seeks to investigate whether 24 weeks of power training has neuroprotective effects in older PwMS. Additional purposes are to examine the effects of 24 weeks power training on physical function, cognitive function and neuromuscular function. Further, it is investigated whether the potential effects of power training are maintained after 24 weeks of follow-up.

Predicting Disease Activity and Rebound Risk in MS Patients Treated With Sphingosine-1-phosphate Receptor Modulators (S1PRM)
Sphingosine 1-Phosphate (S1P) receptor modulators (S1PRMs) are part of the evolving treatment landscape of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) immunotherapies. They target the G-protein coupled S1P receptor, among other localizations expressed at the surface of lymphocytes. Binding as a functional antagonist leads to internalization of the receptor and therefore lymphocyte sequestration in the secondary lymphoid organs. The first S1PRM approved was fingolimod. More recently newer generation S1PRMs like ozanimod have been approved, which possess differences in receptor affinities, pharmacokinetics and indications (including Secondary Progressive MS ...

Predictive Indices of Independent Activity of Daily-living in Neurorehabilitation
Postural and balance disorders are common in neurological disorders. They are often associated with reduced mobility and fear of falling, which strongly limit independent activities of daily living (ADL), compromise the quality of life and reduce social participation. Here the investigators apply an existing software solution to: 1) obtain biomarkers of gait deficits in 5 neurological conditions, 2) develop an automatic procedure supporting clinicians in the early identification of patients at high risk of falling as to tailor rehabilitation treatment; 3) longitudinally assess these patients to test the efficacy of rehabilitation....

Pregnancy Cohort in Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system frequently affecting females in their reproductive phase of life. In this prospective observational study, we obtain data on the outcome of pregnancies in MS patients and the influence of pregnancy on clinical, laboratory and MRI parameters in MS.

Pregnancy Exposure Registry for Vumerity (Diroximel Fumarate)
The primary objectives of the study are to estimate the risk of major congenital malformations (MCMs) in infants born to women with multiple sclerosis (MS) who were exposed to diroximel fumarate (DRF) at any time from 2 weeks after the first day of their last menstrual period (LMP) up through the first trimester of pregnancy and to comparatively evaluate pregnancy outcomes with MCMs in women with MS who were exposed to DRF at any time from 2 weeks after the first day of their LMP through the first trimester of pregnancy with the following: i) women with MS who were unexposed to disease modifying therapies (DMTs) and, ii) women with...

Prevalence and Impact of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Multiple Sclerosis
This study will evaluate the influence of sleep apnea on clinical and radiological features of MS. Sleep apnea is associated with hypoxemia during sleep, which is likely detrimental to MS. Clinical data (MRI, lab results, medical history, labs, and sleep studies) of MS patients will be collected and analyzed. This will be done to study correlations between MRI, clinical data, lab studies and sleep studies. There is specific interest in the type of sleep apnea associated with MS, and whether MRI or clinical metrics of MS severity correlate with presence or absence of sleep apnea.

Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS) Study of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) Inhibitor Tolebrutinib (SAR442168) (PERSEUS)
Primary Objective: To determine the efficacy of SAR442168 compared to placebo in delaying disability progression in primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) Secondary Objectives: To evaluate efficacy of SAR442168 compared to placebo on clinical endpoints, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesions, cognitive performance, physical function, and quality of life To evaluate safety and tolerability of SAR442168 To evaluate population pharmacokinetics (PK) of SAR442168 in PPMS and its relationship to efficacy and safety To evaluate pharmacodynamics of SAR442168

Profile of Adherence to Therapy and Interventions to Promote Adherence in MS
Adherence is an active process wherein the patient acts in collaboration with the medical and paramedical staff in order to improve his/her health. Adherence to medication comprises of implementation and persistence and it is estimated to be around 50% in various chronic illnesses, including Multiple Sclerosis (MS). MS patients who fail to properly adhere to their DMTs regimen may be at increased risk for the development of new central nervous system lesions, exacerbations, increased disabilities and poorer quality of life. Plausible reasons for the low adherence rates in MS mentioned in the literature include patients' attributes, ...

Prospective Case Series to Refine Standalone Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Components for Multiple Sclerosis Fatigue
This prospective case series will use mixed methods to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and initial effects of three telehealth cognitive behavioral therapy components (relaxation training, behavioral activation, cognitive therapy) for fatigue in people with multiple sclerosis.
