Recruiting NA Multiple Sclerosis (MS) - Relapsing-remitting

New treatment option for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) - Relapsing-remitting

Official title Monthly Monitoring of Plasma NfL in Treated Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis to Detect Persistent Infraclinical Disease Activity

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07292480

What this study is testing

What it's testing
Reference MRI scan is recommended 6 months after treatment onset in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), and follow-up scans at 12 months later to monitor subclinical activity. When monitoring treatment response in patients treated with disease modifying treatments (DMTs), the measurement of new or enlarging T2/FLAIR hyperintense lesions (NELs) is the preferred MRI method supplemented by contrast-enhancing lesions (CELs) for monitoring treatment response.
