About this study

Official title: Neurofilament Heavy and Light Chain Testing for NEDA (No Evidence of Disease Activity) Assessing in Multiple Sclerosis: a Longitudinal Biomarker Study

Goal is to evaluate the achievement of biological NEDA as demonstrated by a drop in neurofilament levels in MS patients commencing Alemtuzumab therapy as part of their MS management.

Read the detailed description

Primary

  1. To evaluate the achievement of NEDA using blood and CSF neurofilaments in Alemtuzumab treated patients. Secondary
  2. To assess prognosis at the end of the study based on neurofilament status.
  3. To correlate neurofilament levels with clinical and MRI markers of disease activity.
  4. To evaluate the effect of Alemtuzumab on the profile of other CSF, blood, urine, faeces biomarkers of inflammation, neurodegeneration, neuronal sprouting and synaptogenesis, treatment activity and metabolic activity.
Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Sclerosis, run by Queen Mary University of London at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Feb 2022. 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 United Kingdom. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Under recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Blood and CSF neurofilaments in Alemtuzumab patients over 24months (time frame: 2 years). 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 25 Feb 2022.
