About this study

Official title: Czech Pharmaco-epidemiological Real World Data Study Focused on Effectiveness of Different Disease Modifying Drugs

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a severe autoimmune disease that affects mainly young individuals. It is estimated that there are 17-20,000 affected persons in the Czech Republic.

Currently, MS remains an incurable but treatable disease. As of now, there are many drugs that are able to reduce the inflammatory part of the disease that prevails in its initial phases. The problem is the great variability of the severity of clinical course (from relatively benign to severe malignant courses) and different responses of particular patients to particular drugs. A personalized approach with long life monitoring and adjustment of treatment according to the activity of the disease is essential.

From this point of view registries represent one of the most important source of long term data that is used for evaluation of effectiveness and safety of different drugs in areal life setting.

The objective of this study is to compare effectiveness and safety profile in MS patients treated with a different Disease Modifying Drugs (DMDs) and Ocrelizumab using data from the real clinical practice from the Czech national multiple sclerosis patient registry (ReMuS).

Being tested
interferons, glatiramer acetate, teriflunomide, dimethyl fumarate, alemtuzumab, cladribine, fingolimod, ponesimod, rituximab, ocrelizumab, ofatumumab, natalizumab

What participants receive

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

  • interferons, glatiramer acetate, teriflunomide, dimethyl fumarate, alemtuzumab, cladribine, fingolimod, ponesimod, rituximab, ocrelizumab, ofatumumab, natalizumabDrug

    Administered as part of routine clinical practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Effectiveness in relapses

    Measurement of annualized relapse rate (ARR) in patients on different DMDs.

    Measured: 1 year from DMD initiation

  2. Effectiveness EDSS

    Description of disability measured by Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) of values 0 to 10, where 0 represents no neurological disability due to multiple sclerosis (MS), and 10 represents death due to MS. The EDSS is commonly used among clinicians, and described by Kurtzke JF. Rating neurologic impairment in multiple sclerosis: an expanded disability status scale (EDSS). Neurology. 1983; 33(11): 1444-1452.

    Measured: 1 year from DMD initiation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Description of baseline characteristics of patients treated by different DMDs at the time of DMT initiation

    Baseline characteristics (age, sex, disease duration, previous treatment, type of MS) of patients treated with different DMDs

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Description of termination of different DMDs treatment

    Number of patients that terminate treatment on particular DMDs

    Measured: Day of DMD termination, assessed up to 15 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Sclerosis, run by IMPULS Endowment Fund at 1 site in Czechia.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 9 Mar 2023. 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 Czechia. 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?

Effectiveness in relapses (time frame: 1 year from DMD initiation). The study lists 2 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 9 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
