Multiple Sclerosis Paid Clinical Trials in Texas

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of fingolimod vs. interferon beta-1a i.m. in pediatric patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) Read Less

The purpose of each study is to independently measure the annualized relapse rate (ARR) with administration of frexalimab compared to a daily oral dose of teriflunomide in male and female participants with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (aged 18 to 55 years at the time of enrollment). People diagnosed with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis are eligible for enrollment as long as they meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Study details include: This event-driven study will have variable duration of approximately 40 months for the first participant being randomized and approximately 20 months for the last participant randomized. The study intervention duration will vary ranging from approximately 20 to 40 months. The assessment of scheduled visits will include 1 common end of study [EOS] visit and 3 follow-up visits) with a visit frequency of every 4 weeks for the first 6 months and then every 3 months.

Efficacy and safety of ofatumumab and siponimod compared to fingolimod in pediatric patients with multiple sclerosis Read Less

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Read Less

The study is being done to determine if treatment with a novel form of light therapy is tolerated in patients with progressive multiple sclerosis. The goal of this trial to establish the safety profile of this light therapy while generating data on its impact on fatigue, as well as its mechanism of action. Fatigue is often a complex symptom in multiple sclerosis, without any FDA-approved direct therapy. Fatigue is traditionally treated with symptom management through a multidisciplinary team.

The purpose of this study is to collect long-term safety, tolerability, effectiveness and health outcomes data in eligible subjects who have participated in a Novartis ofatumumab clinical MS study. Vaccination sub-study The purpose of this research sub-study is to find out the effects of ofatumumab on the development of antibody responses to selected vaccines and keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) neo-antigen in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and drug levels of CC-97540 in participants with Relapsing Forms of Multiple Sclerosis (RMS) or Progressive Forms of Multiple Sclerosis (PMS). Read Less

Over the past 10 years, the rates of multiple sclerosis (MS) have nearly doubled in the United States. This chronic, neuroinflammatory, and neurodegenerative disease is most often diagnosed between the ages of 20-40. Cognitive impairment effects up to 70% of people with MS (PwMS) and has a detrimental impact on mental health, social connections, and employment. Further, up to 50% of PwMS also struggle with depression. Numerous cognitive rehabilitation programs are available to address cognitive impairment, but few interventions have simultaneous effects on cognition and emotional well-being. Music interventions have potential to fill this gap. Brain imaging studies on music and emotion show that music can modulate activity in the brains structures that are known to be crucially involved in emotion. Further, music engages areas of the brain that are involved with paying attention, making predictions, and updating events in our memory. The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of an online musical training intervention (MTI) for PwMS and explore the potential effect on cognition, psychosocial, and functional well-being compared to an active control group (music listening (ML)). The specific aims are to: 1) determine the feasibility and acceptability of delivering the MTI virtually over three months to PwMS; 2) evaluate the effect of the MTI on cognitive functioning (processing speed, working memory, cognitive flexibility, response inhibition), psychosocial (anxiety, depression, stress, quality of life, self-efficacy) and functional (insomnia) well-being compared to ML; and 3) (exploratory aim) to utilize non-invasive neuroimaging to determine if pre-intervention brain activity predicts post-intervention cognitive functioning.

The primary objectives are to investigate the safety and tolerability of BIIB091 monotherapy in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) (Part 1), and to evaluate the effects of BIIB091 combination therapy with Diroximel Fumarate (DRF) compared with the DRF monotherapy arm, on the key Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) measure of active Central Nervous System (CNS) inflammation (Part 2). The secondary objectives are to evaluate the effects of BIIB091 monotherapy on the MRI measures of active CNS inflammation, to evaluate the effects of BIIB091 combination therapy with DRF compared with the DRF monotherapy arm on additional MRI measures of active CNS inflammation, to investigate the safety and tolerability of BIIB091 combination therapy with DRF in participants with RMS.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab ( Ocrevus®) compared with placebo in participants with primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS), including participants later in their disease course. This study focuses on upper limit disability progression. This study will consist of the following phases: screening, double-blind treatment, follow-up 1 (FU1), an optional open-label extension (OLE), follow-up 2 (FU2), and B-cell monitoring (BCM).

This double-blind, double-dummy study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of ocrelizumab compared with fingolimod in children and adolescents with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis aged between 10 and < 18 years over a duration of at least 96 weeks. Read Less

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
