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.
Function Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Assess Two Therapeutic Strategies in Multiple Sclerosis (NeuroRehEM).
Study Purpose
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that causes cognitive and motor disabilities and contributes to decrease patients life quality. Previous results described that there are some MS patients that showed (at least in some phases of the disease) neuroplasticity processes that are able to compensate some cognitive deficits. Moreover, neuroplasticity processes seem to be limited and related to the degree of gray matter atrophy (patients with less atrophy show grater neuroplasticity than those with higher atrophy level). The aims of this project are: 1. to study behavioral changes (post-training) induced by two different rehabilitation programs: a)cognitive training focused on exclusively enhancing working memory and b) aerobic + cognitive training aimed to enhance attention, working memory processes and motor capabilities using a virtual reality game. 2. to study neuroplasticity changes (post-training functional connectivity changes) induced by these rehabilitation programs. 3. to observe the role of the atrophy in brain neuroplasticity processes. Neuropathological status and neuroplasticity processes (studied using neuroimaging tools) as well as cognitive performance using neuropsychological tools will be assessed in a group of MS patients (with different phenotypes) at two different time points: before any training (S1) and after 10 days of training (S2). This project will be financed by the Ministerio de ciencia, innovación y universidades of the Spanish government and also have been approved by the Ethical committee of Universitat Jaume I.

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. |
NCT05270239 |
|
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. |
