Multiple Sclerosis clinical trials at UCSD

8 in progress, 2 open to eligible people

Showing trials for
  • Treatment of Participants With Primary or Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

    open to eligible people ages 18-65

    The goal of this clinical trial is to treat male and female participants with two types of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) called primary progressive or secondary progressive MS. The main questions the trial aims to answer are the following: - Is TRX319 safe when administered to patients with progressive forms of MS? - At what dose does TRX319 work the best to treat participants with primary and or secondary progressive MS? - Is pre-conditioning (with Bendamustine) needed to allow TRX319 to better treat participants with primary and/or secondary progressive MS? Participants will be asked to be on study for up 1 year and may receive up to 3 total administrations of TRX319. While on study, participants will have blood tests and other assessments (MRI scans and lumbar punctures) done to understand the safety of TRX319 and how it may benefit their multiple sclerosis.

  • Kesimpta (Ofatumumab) Pregnancy Registry

    open to eligible people ages 18-100

    The Kesimpta Pregnancy Registry is an observational, exposure cohort designed study to examine pregnancy and infant outcomes in women and infants who are exposed to Kesimpta (ofatumumab) during pregnancy to treat MS.

  • BIIB017 (Peginterferon Beta-1a) in Pediatric Participants for the Treatment of Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and descriptive efficacy of BIIB017 in pediatric participants with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIIB017 in pediatric participants with RRMS in Part 1. In Part 2, the study will evaluate the long-term safety of BIIB017 and further describe safety and the long-term multiple sclerosis (MS) outcomes after BIIB017 treatment in participants who completed the study treatment at Week 96 in Part 1 of the study.

  • Cellular Kinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of P-CD19CD20-ALLO1 in Participants With Multiple Sclerosis

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This study aims to explore the safety, tolerability, cellular kinetics, and pharmacodynamics of P-CD19CD20-ALLO1 in participants with progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS) and relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS).

  • FIT-ATOMIC Exercise Feasibility Trial

    Sorry, not yet accepting patients

    This multi-center, randomized controlled feasibility trial will assess a 20-week home-based exercise intervention in youth with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The goal is to determine the feasibility of conducting a larger, definitive trial on exercise training as a non-pharmacological approach to improve disease outcomes in this population. Participants will be randomized to either an Exercise Training group or a Mobility and Flexibility Training group. The investigators will evaluate differences between the two groups in physical activity levels, mediators of physical activity, and psychosocial outcomes. Assessments, including clinical exams, brain MRI, eye tracking, cognitive testing, blood draws, and questionnaires, will occur at baseline and after 20 weeks. Accelerometry will be done at baseline, 10 weeks, and 20 weeks to track physical activity. The primary objectives are to assess the feasibility of recruiting, retaining, and randomizing youth with MS and to evaluate adherence to the exercise intervention and coaching sessions. Exploratory objectives include examining changes in depressive symptoms, cognitive function, blood biomarkers (BDNF and irisin), brain volume, and fitness levels in response to the intervention. Approximately 40 participants will be enrolled from four sites in Canada and the United States. Primary outcomes include feasibility, acceptability, and fidelity measures. Exploratory outcomes include blood biomarkers, brain MRI, cognitive testing, and other neuropsychological measures.

  • Frexalimab (SAR441344) in Adults With Nonrelapsing Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study is to determine the efficacy of frexalimab in delaying the disability progression and the safety up to 36 months double-blind administration of study intervention compared to placebo in male and female participants with nrSPMS (aged 18 to 60 years at the time of enrollment). People diagnosed with nrSPMS 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 end when the target number of 6-month cCDP events is achieved, and the study is expected to last 43 months from randomization of the first participant to the common study end. - The number of scheduled visits will be up to 25 (including 3 follow-up visits) with a visit frequency of every month for the first 6 months and then every 3 months. - If the prespecified number of events for 6-month cCDP is not reached by V21/W180, scheduled visits will continue every 3 months.

  • Long-term Safety and Tolerability of Tolebrutinib in Participants With Multiple Sclerosis.

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This is a Phase 3 extension, global, multicenter study to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of tolebrutinib in adult participants (aged ≥18 years) with RMS, PPMS, or NRSPMS who were previously enrolled in the Phase 2b LTS (LTS16004) or 1 of the 4 Phase 3 tolebrutinib pivotal trials (GEMINI 1 [EFC16033], GEMINI 2 [EFC16034], HERCULES [EFC16645], or PERSEUS [EFC16035]).

  • Ocrelizumab in Comparison With Fingolimod in Children and Adolescents With Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS)

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This double-blind, double-dummy study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of ocrelizumab compared with fingolimod in children and adolescents with RRMS aged between 10 and < 18 years over a flexible duration. The double-blind period will last until after the last participant randomized has completed 24 weeks.
