About this study

Official title: Holter of Movement in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis. Acti-SEP Study: Controlled Environment.

ActiSEP is a multicentric academic study. Ambulant patients with multiple sclerosis may be included on a voluntary basis. We plan to include a group of approximately 20 patients with MS.

This study include a unique evaluation in the laboratory of analysis of human movement. A set of tasks will be performed by patients wearing of two magneto-inertial sensors.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Actimyo°Device

    Actimyo° is an innovative device intended to be used in a home-based environment. It is composed of two watch-like sensors, each containing a magneto-inertial sensors that record the linear acceleration, the angular velocity, the magnetic field of the movement in all directions.The two watches can be worn as wristwatch or placed near the ankle.

  • IMUDevice

    IMU is a portable system of miniaturized inertial sensors for objective, instrumental, ambulatory, and validated analysis of normal and pathological human gait. Each miniaturized inertial sensor (2 cm × 0.7 cm × 0.5 cm) includes a triaxial accelerometer and a triaxial gyroscope.

    These four inertial sensors are connected to a box by wires and are numbered 1 to 4. They must be attached - using adhesive tapes - on the participant's shoes.

    Measured: One day

  2. 50th centile of stride velocity

    50th centile of stride velocity obtained with magneto-inertial sensors and a motion capture device (meter/second).

    Measured: One day

  3. 95th centile of stride length

    95th centile of stride length obtained with magneto-inertial sensors and a motion capture device (meter).

    Measured: One day

  4. 50th centile of stride length

    50th centile of stride length obtained with magneto-inertial sensors and a motion capture device (meter).

    Measured: One day

  5. Stance phase time

    Stance time over full stride time for each foot obtained with magneto-inertial sensors and a motion capture device (percentage).

    Measured: One day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Actimyo° and IMU in people with Multiple Sclerosis, run by Laurent Servais at 1 site in Belgium.

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 3 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 12 Feb 2025. 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 Belgium. 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?

95th centile of stride velocity (time frame: One day). The study lists 5 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 12 Feb 2025.
