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.
Clinical trials help to determine if treatments are safe and effective. Studies are monitored to ensure that the rights and safety of all participants are protected. Make an informed decision before agreeing to participate. Read more in our Guide to Participating in Clinical Trials.

31P-MRS Imaging to Assess the Effects of CNM-Au8 on Impaired Neuronal Redox State in Multiple Sclerosis.
REPAIR-MS is a single-center open label, sequential group, investigator and patient blinded study to assess the CNS metabolic effects, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CNM-Au8 in patients who have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) within fifteen (15) years of Screening. The primary endpoint for this study changes from baseline to week 12 in CNS metabolic changes, based on 31P-MRSimaging.

3D OPTIMIZED WMN MPRAGE Increased Detection of Focal Spinal Cord Lesion in Multiple Sclerosis (WHINUME)
The aim of this study is to compare the 3D OPTIMIZED MPRAGE WMN sequence to "conventional sequences" used in spinal cord analysis. The patients will be explored at the cervical level with the conventional 2D sagittal T2 FSE, 2D sagittal STIR, 2D sagittal PSIR, 3D T1 MPRAGE sequences, and the sequence of interest 3D sagittal OPTIMIZED WMN MPRAGE and 3D axial OPTIMIZED WMN MPRAGE. At the thoracic level, with the conventional 2D sagittal T2 FSE, 2D sagittal STIR, 3D T1 MPRAGE sequences and the sequence of interest 3D sagittal OPTIMIZED WMN MPRAGE.

Acceptability and Feasibility of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for Depression in Multiple Sclerosis
The goal of this single-arm, observational pilot study is to learn about the safety, feasibility, preliminary efficacy of TMS for the treatment of depression in people with MS. Participants will receive outpatient TMS treatment over the course of 5-6 weeks. Participants will complete validated questionnaires and exams before, during, and after treatment.

Acceptability of Exoskeleton Assisted Walking for Persons With Mobility Issues Due to Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. Lack of physical activity is common in people with MS (pwMS). This can lead to several comorbid conditions such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, osteoporosis, hypertension, diabetes and worse prognosis. An increasing number of studies suggest that physical exercise can play an important role in managing symptoms, preventing complications and comorbidities in pwMS, and may possibly be neuroprotective. However, doing exercise can be very challenging for pwMS who have moderate/severe mobility disability and who have problems with walking. In this...

A Closed Loop, Doctor to Patient, Mobile Application for Depression in People With Multiple Sclerosis
The researchers want to find out if an electronic application called MS CATCH can enhance patients' and doctors' experiences during and in between clinical visits. MS CATCH is a smartphone-based tool which allows patients to enter their mood related symptoms at regular intervals, which is then available to their Neurologist in their electronic medical record. The neurologist is also able to view additional information from their medical record, and receives alerts for changes reported by the patient that raise concern for the patient's mental health.

A Cross-sectional Study to Assess the Effectiveness and Safety of Ofatumumab (Kesimpta®) in Patients With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis in the Spanish Clinical Practice
This is a non-interventional, cross-sectional, multicentric, and nationwide study, based on primary and secondary data collection.

Action Observation Training With 3D Virtual Reality in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, autoimmune and inflammatory disease of the Central Nervous System characterized by neuronal demyelination and axonal degeneration. Upper extremity problems are present in MS patients from an early stage, affecting the performance of the individual and leading to a decrease in activity of daily living ability in proportion to the extent of the problem. Action Observation Training is currently being examined as one of the methods used for the improvement of motor disorders and has been shown in the literature to be effective on different functions in neurological diseases. The aim of this study was to...

Acute Effect of Osteopathic Visceral Mobilization Techniques
Multiple Sclerosis (MS), caused by lesions in the white matter of the central nervous system, is an autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating chronic disease. The disease may present with many findings from fatigue, spasticity, balance and gait disturbances to bladder-bowel dysfunction (Ferreira, A.P.S., et al., 2019). When the rehabilitation methods for incontinence were examined, pelvic floor muscle training, tibial nerve stimulation and sacral neuromodulation were frequently encountered (Rahnama'I, MS., 2020). Pelvic floor muscle training should create an effective result in MS patients, and the training should be done for a long...

Acute Effects of Walking Exercise on Brain Functioning in Multiple Sclerosis
The project will involve a within-subjects, repeated-measures research design. Participants will initially be screened for relevant inclusion/exclusion criteria for maximizing safety of participating in an exercise study. If a participant meets those inclusion/exclusion criteria, they will visit Kessler Foundation three times. The first visit will involve a baseline session where participants will complete several cognitive tests. This will be followed by a training session, where participants will be provided with a FitBit, and will be trained by research staff to walk at a rate of 100 steps per minute. Once participants demonstrate...

Acute Optic Neuritis Network: an International Study That Invesitages Subjects With a First-ever Episode of Acute Inflammation of the Optic Nerve
The goal of this observational study is to longitudinally investigating subjects with inaugural acute optic neuritis (ON). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the time to corticosteroid treatment affect the visual outcome at 6 months in subjects with acute multiple sclerosis (MS)-, aquaporin 4-IgG positive (AQP4-IgG+) and myelin-oligodendrocyte-glycoprotein-IgG positive (MOG-IgG+) ON? - How differ clinical, structural, and laboratory biomarkers in subjects with acute ON, including clinical isolated syndrome (CIS), MS-ON, AQP4-IgG+ON, MOG-IgG+ON and seronegative non-MS-ON?...
