The Possible Neuroprotective Effect of Ocrelizumab Via VEGF Protein Expression in Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Ocrelizumab (OCR) is a humanized anti-CD20 antibody approved for Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS) and Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS), due to neuroprotective effects of partially unknown origin. While its mechanism of action is mainly thought to occur via B cell depletion, previous studies on rituximab, another anti-CD20 drug, showed that CD20 binding elicits several intracellular signalling pathways, also including Protein Kinase C (PKC) activation. Of interest, the β isoform of PKC is known to modulate, through the RNA-binding protein ELAV/HuR, the expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), a signaling ...

Therapeutic Monitoring of Drugs Used in the Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis
The main goal of multiple sclerosis (MS) treatment is to prevent further relapses of the disease and the progression of neurological deficit. Although MS cannot yet be cured, early control of symptoms and reduction of disease progression is associated with a longer time to disability and improve long-term treatment outcomes. Currently, MS is treated using a multidisciplinary approach, which consists of treatment with so-called "disease-modifying drugs" ("DMDs"), symptomatic therapy of individual symptoms, lifestyle adjustments, psychological support, and rehabilitation interventions. According to the latest results, treatment with...

Managed Access Program (MAP) for Patients Diagnosed With Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis With Active Disease
The purpose of this MAP Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to siponimod for eligible patients diagnosed with Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis with active disease. The patient's Treating Physician should follow the suggested treatment guidelines and comply with all local health authority regulations. The requesting Treating Physician should submit a request for access to the drug (often referred to as Compassionate Use) to Novartis which will be reviewed and assessed by the medical team experienced with the drug and indication.
