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.

Assessment of Clemastine Fumarate as a Remyelinating Agent in Acute Optic Neuritis (ReCOVER)
The main purpose of this study is to assess clemastine as a remyelinating agent in patients with acute optic neuritis.The study will also evaluate the tolerability of clemastine, originally approved as first-generation antihistamine, in patients with optic neuritis. Study procedures will include assessments for evidence of remyelination in the anterior visual pathway and in the brain using electrophysiologic techniques and magnetic resonance imaging. If they are on one, patients in this study can remain on their standard disease modifying treatment during the course of the study. However, patients cannot participate in any other ...

Assessment of Language Disorders in Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous systems that results in focal inflammatory lesions and then diffuse and degenerative inflammatory phenomena. It is considered to be the leading cause of non-traumatic disability in young adults. Cognitive impairment is a common and disabling part of MS. Studies carried out in the years 1990-2000 estimated their frequency to be between 40 and 60% of MS patients: they reflect the natural history of the disease. Effective treatments for the inflammatory component of the disease that are now available may have led to a reduction in their frequency. Cognitive...

Assessment of Neuroinflammation in Central Inflammatory Disorders Using [F-18]DPA-714.
The primary objective of this study is to measure the concentration and the regional brain distribution of activated brain microglia/macrophages using the PET radiopharmaceutical [F-18]DPA-714 in individuals with chronic pain and fatigue suspected to be associated with neuroinflammation. The PET tracer [F-18]DPA-714 binds to the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO, also known as the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor) in the mitochondria of activated microglia/macrophages and provides a non-invasive measure of neuroinflammation. The primary objective of this study is to determine if pain and fatigue patients have higher levels of ...

Assessment of Quality of Life and Psychological Problems in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
1. use QoL assessments to check whether interventions have been as effective from the patient's point of view as from the clinician's, and to determine whether further action is required . Knowledge of which factors are determinants of QoL in patients with MS would assist clinicians in choosing the most appropriate interventions. Several determinants of QoL have been identified with varying strengths of association and include both disease-related variables (disability status ,disease duration ,fatigue ,depression ,cognition , sociodemographic variables (age and sex ,level of education, and marital...

Assessment of tDCS-Induced Neuronal Responses in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) With Advanced MRI
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.

A Study Evaluating B Cell Levels In Infants Of Lactating Women With CIS Or MS Receiving Ocrelizumab
This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics of ocrelizumab in the breastmilk of lactating women with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) or multiple sclerosis (MS) [in line with the locally approved indications] treated with ocrelizumab, by assessing the concentration of ocrelizumab in mature breastmilk, as well as the corresponding exposure and pharmacodynamic effects (blood B cell levels) in the infants.

A Study of NeuroVax™, a Therapeutic TCR Peptide Vaccine for SPMS of Multiple Sclerosis
Multi-center, randomized , double-blind, placebo-controlled , two arm parallel design study of NeuroVax™ vs. Incomplete Freund's Adjuvant ( I F A) placebo. 200 subjects with Secondary Progressive SPMS

A Study of Ocrelizumab in Children and Adolescents With Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis
This 2-year study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of ocrelizumab in children and adolescents ages ≥ 10 to ≤ 18 years with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The data from this study will serve to determine the dosing regimen of ocrelizumab to be further investigated in the subsequent Phase III study in children and adolescents.

A Study of Suboptimally Controlled Participants Previously Taking Oral or Infusion DMDs for RMS (MASTER-2)
To evaluate the effectiveness, safety and Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) of cladribine tablets in participants with RMS including relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (aSPMS), who transition to cladribine tablets after suboptimal response to any oral or infusion Disease-Modifying Drugs (DMDs) approved in the United States (US) for RMS in a real-world-setting.
