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.

Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of IMU-838 in Patients With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis

Study Purpose

Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blinded Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of IMU-838 versus Placebo in Adults with Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (ENSURE-2)

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
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.	Interventional
Eligible Ages	18 Years - 55 Years
Gender	All

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

- Previous or current use of MS treatments lifelong, or within a pre-specified time period.

- Use of the pre-specified concomitant medications.

- Clinically significantly abnormal and pre-specified lab values.

- History of chronic systemic infections within 6 months before the date of informed consent.

- Diagnosis or suspected liver function impairment, which may cause fluctuating liver function tests during this study.

- Known history of nephrolithiasis or underlying condition with a strong association of nephrolithiasis.

- History or clinical diagnosis of gout.

- History or presence of any major medical or psychiatric illness.

- Substantial medical condition that could create undue risk to the patient, could affect adherence with the study protocol or could undesirably affect study outcomes

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.	NCT05201638
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.	Phase 3
Lead Sponsor The sponsor is the organization or person who oversees the clinical study and is responsible for analyzing the study data.	Immunic AG
