About this study

Official title: Single-centre, Observational Study, Concerning Blood-lipid Biomarkers of the Response to Treatment With Biotine, Prescribed in the Context of a Nominative TAU (Temporary Authorized Use) in Patients With an Inactive Progressive Form of Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

Biotine is proposed by neurologists to patients with a progressive form of Multiple sclerosis (MS) in the context of a nominative temporary authorization for use (TAU) as a disease-modifying treatment for their MS. A recent study showed that with this treatment, more patients experienced an improvement after one year in comparison with patients given a placebo.

The objective of this study is to identify blood biomarkers to determine good responders as early as possible. In addition, the blood parameters studied will make it possible to better understand the mechanisms of action, that have a beneficial effect on multiple sclerosis.

The management of patients will not be modified: same number of consultations (at the prescription, at 3 months, at 12 months), same clinical examination, and the same number of blood samples (at the prescription, at 3 months, and at 12 months).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Sclerosis and Biotine, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon at 1 site in France.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 18 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

validated disability scale (EDSS) (time frame: change from baseline validated disability scale at 3 and 12 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Sep 2019.
