Trial summary

Fatigue is the most common symptom and the most disabling symptom of Multiple Sclerosis, and its inefficient management can be a source of multiple consultations (increase in health costs) and a reduction in productivity (work stoppages). Read more about this study

About this study

Fatigue is the most common symptom and the most disabling symptom of Multiple Sclerosis, and its inefficient management can be a source of multiple consultations (increase in health costs) and a reduction in productivity (work stoppages).

Hence the need to define the most effective therapeutic strategy to reduce fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis.

Read more

One of the aims of this project is to provide clinical indicators that can serve as evaluation criteria for determining the most effective fatigue management strategy in Multiple Sclerosis.

The primary objective of the study is to determine the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) and the Patient Acceptable Symptomatic State (PASS) for fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis.

The source population consists of all people with Multiple Sclerosis living in Lorraine and registered in the Lorraine Registry of Multiple Sclerosis (RelSEP).

Read the detailed description

Two-year patient follow-up is planned with data collection at 0, 12 and 24 months.

In addition to data already collected as part of the establishment and monitoring of the ReLSEP registry, more specific data for this study will be collected at 0, 12 and 24 months by self-questionnaires sent to patients' homes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Fatigue score: EMIF-SEP scale

    measured by EMIF-SEP scale (French version of the fatigue impact scale in multiple sclerosis): 40 items and 4 dimensions (physical, psychological, cognitive, social)

    Measured: changes between 0,1 and 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The quality of life: SF-36

    measured by SF-36 (36-Item Short Form Survey)

    Measured: changes between 0,1 and 2 years

  2. The quality of life: MuSIQoL

    measured by MuSIQoL (Multiple Sclerosis International Quality of Life Questionnaire)

    Measured: changes between 0,1 and 2 years

  3. Nutritional behaviors (physical activity and sedentary lifestyle)

    measured by GPAQ (Global Physical Activity Questionnaire)

    Measured: changes between 0,1 and 2 years

  4. Psychological state (optimism, anxiety, depression)

    measured by HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale)

    Measured: changes between 0,1 and 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Sclerosis, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France 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 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2020. 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.

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jonathan EPSTEIN (+33383859304, j.epstein@chru-nancy.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Fatigue score: EMIF-SEP scale (time frame: changes between 0,1 and 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 8 Jul 2020.
