Artificial Intelligence in Predicting Progression in Multiple Sclerosis Study
Study Purpose
The study proposal focuses on multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic incurable disease of the central nervous system (CNS). The MS disease is characterised by recurrent transient disability progression, quantified by increase in the extended disability status score (EDSS), and subsequent remission (disappearance of symptoms and reduced EDSS score) or, alternatively, a gradual EDSS disability progression and exacerbation of associated symptoms. At the same time, the MS is characterised by multifocal inflammatory lesions disseminated throughout the white and grey matter of the CNS, which can be observed and quantified in the magnetic resonance (MR) scans. The proposed study will address the critical unmet need of computer-assisted extraction and assessment of prognostic factors based from an individual patient's brain MR scan, such as lesion count, volume, whole-brain and regional brain atrophy, and atrophied lesion volume, in order to evaluate the capability for personalized future disability progression prediction.
Recruitment Criteria
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms |
Yes |
Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT05426980 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
