Active clinical trials for "Sclerosis"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of trametinib (SNR1611) in the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation, demyelination and axon damage. Affecting approximately 2.5 million individuals around the world and seen mostly in young adults, MS can cause different levels of disability in functional activities, cause limitations in social and professional life, and impair quality of life. Multiple sclerosis is thought to be an autoimmune disease that develops on the basis of genetic predisposition and environmental factors. Nutritional habits and physical activity are important environmental factors. These can be effective in the course of MS and change the quality of life. Compatibility of nutrition with the Mediterranean diet and providing adequate physical activity may be beneficial in increasing physical and mental well-being in general, and therefore the quality of life of the person. In our country, there is not enough information about the ongoing nutritional habits and physical activity levels of MS patients in their daily lives, and quality of life studies are limited. Our limited knowledge on these issues narrows the possibility of movement in an area that can be corrected in MS patients and thus have a positive impact on their quality of life. The aim of this study is to determine compliance with the Mediterranean diet, the tendency to use various nutritional supplements, physical activity habits, walking-related problems and quality of life in MS patients and to evaluate whether there is a significant relationship between these parameters.

The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Generic Fingolimod (Sphingomod®, Hikma) in Patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis in Egypt

The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of reldesemtiv in patients with ALS who have successfully completed dosing in the Phase 3 clinical trial, CY 5031 (also known as COURAGE-ALS)

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of treatment with daclizumab on the proportion of participants relapse-free at 6 months in Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) participants, who switched from treatment with natalizumab to daclizumab due to safety concerns. The secondary objectives of this study in this study population are to evaluate the effects of daclizumab on the following: 1) Multiple Sclerosis (MS) relapse activity including the annualized relapse rate (ARR) and the proportion of participants experiencing relapses requiring hospitalization and/or steroid treatment; 2) MS-related outcomes measured using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); 3) Safety and tolerability in participants previously treated with natalizumab.

The primary objective of the study is to assess whether a 6-week titration (compared with a 1-week titration) is effective in reducing the incidence of dimethyl fumarate (DMF [Tecfidera])-related gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events (AEs) in participants with multiple sclerosis (MS). The secondary objective of this study is to assess whether a 6-week titration (compared with a 1-week titration) is effective in reducing the average severity and duration of GI symptoms over 12 weeks of DMF treatment in this study population.

The investigators hypothesize that vitamin D supplementation may ameliorate interferon beta-induced flu-like symptoms, owing to reduced release and activity of the cytokines that are in correlation with this adverse event. Vitamin D supplementation may also positively affect injection site reactions due to its immunomodulatory effects. Vitamin D may also augment the therapeutic efficacy of interferon beta among multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Vitamin D intake may influence melatonin levels of MS patients as they share the same nuclear receptor.

The purpose of this study is to make laquinimod 0.6 mg available for all subjects who completed the placebo-controlled MS-LAQ-301 study according to the protocol and to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and effect on disease course of daily oral laquinimod 0.6 mg in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis.

The study is a randomized Phase II study, masked and crossed-over with placebo to evaluate the safety and tolerability of autologous mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in patients with active multiple sclerosis

The objective of this active-drug Extension Study is to evaluate the continuing safety and efficacy of ONO-4641 (MSC2430913A) in subjects with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who have completed an initial 26-week Core Study (ONO-4641POU006 [NCT01081782]).
