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.
Development of Digital Biomarkers in Multiple Sclerosis: Validation Study 2
Study Purpose
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Diagnosis is established by clinical assessment of persons with MS (PwMS), in combination with imaging and body fluid assessments. Treatment decisions in MS are mainly based on periodic monitoring of disease activity and progression through clinical and imaging assessments. The predictive and prognostic value of currently used assessments to individualize treatment decisions is still very limited. Emerging digital measures have the potential to provide granular health status measurements that would allow monitoring MS disease activity and progression continuously and remotely, in real-world settings, with minimal disruption of patients' life. Using the investigators' self developed dreaMS software program the investigators previously identified digital biomarkers (DB) that hold promise to provide detailed and accurate assessments of MS-related health status and disease progression to complement traditional clinical, imaging, or body fluid assessments. This international, observational study aims to evaluate and validate the generalizability of these DB across different languages and cultural settings to provide DB that are helpful for patient care, research, and regulatory decisions. Beyond this, the processes and data structures created for this study are intended to establish a collaborative research platform for subsequent studies, including pragmatic trials, promoting new long-term international academic collaborations.

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 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. |
NCT06309173 |
|
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. |
