About this study

Official title: A 14-Week, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Nerispirdine 50 mg, 100 mg, and 200 mg in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis.

The primary objective is to assess the activity of nerispirdine in improving the ability to walk, in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).

Secondary objectives:

  • To assess other measures of walking ability, tiredness, and lower limb muscular strength, spasticity, clinical assessment by subject and clinical assessment of change by the Study Investigator
  • To assess the safety and tolerance of nerispirdine
  • To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) parameters of nerispirdine
Read the detailed description

Total duration per patient is approximately 19 weeks in total, comprising a 3-week screening period inclusive of a 2-week placebo run-in period, a 14-week treatment period, and a 2-week placebo run-out (follow-up) period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Nerispirdine in people with Multiple Sclerosis, run by Sanofi at 7 sites in 7 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States, Canada, Finland, France, Germany and 2 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Responder criterion based on consistency of improved response in walking speed on the Timed 25-Foot Walk (T25-FWT) (time frame: 14 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Feb 2016.
