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.
AHSCT With Fludarabine and Cyclophosphamide Based Conditioning Regimes in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Study Purpose
One of the possible options for the treatment of MS at present is a high-dose immunosuppressive therapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HIST-AHSCT), which is a highly effective treatment for patients with relapsing-remitting MS. This method of MS treatment was introduced in 1997. Significant complications and mortality associated with HIST-ATHSC is an obstacle to broad use of this method. The risk is even greater in patients with advanced disease, long duration of previous treatment and aggressive forms of MS. Despite toxicity certain progressive cases of MS are still an indication for HIST-autoHSCT. Most commonly used conditioning regimens for multiple sclerosis include high-dose cyclophosphamide. One of the options to reduce cyclophosphamide-related toxicity and dose is addition of fludarabine. Fludarabine is a cytostatic drug, an antimetabolite from the group of purine antagonists. It has a pronounced immunosuppressive activity and no overlapping toxicity with cyclophosphamide. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of this combination.

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. |

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. |
NCT05832515 |
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. |
