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 Language Disorders in Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Study Purpose
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 disorders were identified at an early stage of the disease and affect certain areas preferentially:
- - The most common achievement is the reduction in the speed of information processing.
- - The attainment of executive functions is also common.
- - Phonemic and semantic fluency are also disturbed in MS patients.

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms |
Yes |
Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT04465084 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
