Multiple Sclerosis Paid Clinical Trials in Missouri

This is a randomized, double-blind study of PIPE-307 or placebo in subjects with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Subjects will be randomized into 1 of 3 separate cohorts (1:1:1 randomization ratio, PIPE-307 Dose A:PIPE-307 Dose B: Placebo) for a total duration of approximately 30 weeks. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to test the effects of two dietary interventions, glycemic load and calorie restriction, on physical function, cognition, pain, fatigue, mood, and anxiety in adults with multiple sclerosis (MS). The investigators will also explore the how the diet interventions impact inflammation, immunity, and metabolic biomarkers. Read Less

This is a multi-center prospective rater-masked (blinded) randomized controlled trial of 156 participants, comparing the treatment strategy of Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (AHSCT) to the treatment strategy of Best Available Therapy (BAT) for treatment-resistant relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS). Participants will be randomized at a 1 to 1 (1:1) ratio. All participants will be followed for 72 months after randomization (Day 0, Visit 0). Read Less

The purpose of this project is to determine if specific gut microbiome or gut-derived metabolites are associated with depression in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (pwMS). Mechanistically, the investigators further hypothesize that depression in pwMS is related to decreased abundance of gut bacteria with GABA-producing activities and/or with anti-inflammatory properties. To determine if the presence of depression in pwMS is associated with specific gut microbiome, gut-derived metabolites or peripheral blood immune profiles. The investigators will perform a cross-sectional study in clinically stable pwMS recruited at the John L. Trotter MS Center. The investigators will evaluate the presence of depression using the Quality of Life in Neurological Disorders (Neuro-Qol) depression scale, one of the 13 scales in the Neuro-Qol recently developed by the NIH using modern psychometric techniques and validated in pwMS. A total of 120 pwMS will be recruited: 60 with and 60 without depression based on the Neuro-Qol depression scale. At the study visit each participant will be asked to provide a stool sample for microbiome analyses and a blood sample for peripheral blood immunophenotyping. Potential confounders will be collected and treated as covariates in the analyses. These include: 1) degree of disability (EDSS); 2) treatment with anti-depressants and DMTs; 3) a 4-days food diary to evaluate diet composition; 4) weight and height to calculate the BMI; 5) fatigue; 6) level of physical activity; 7) sleep quality.
