Patient Acceptable Symptomatic State and Minimal Clinically Important Difference of the Fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis (SeDiF_SEP) (SeDiF_SEP)

July 6, 2020 updated by: Central Hospital, Nancy, France

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.

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).

Study Overview

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

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.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Design Details

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Fatigue score: EMIF-SEP scale
Time Frame: changes between 0,1 and 2 years
measured by EMIF-SEP scale (French version of the fatigue impact scale in multiple sclerosis): 40 items and 4 dimensions (physical, psychological, cognitive, social)
changes between 0,1 and 2 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The quality of life: SF-36
Time Frame: changes between 0,1 and 2 years
measured by SF-36 (36-Item Short Form Survey)
changes between 0,1 and 2 years
The quality of life: MuSIQoL
Time Frame: changes between 0,1 and 2 years
measured by MuSIQoL (Multiple Sclerosis International Quality of Life Questionnaire)
changes between 0,1 and 2 years
Nutritional behaviors (physical activity and sedentary lifestyle)
Time Frame: changes between 0,1 and 2 years
measured by GPAQ (Global Physical Activity Questionnaire)
changes between 0,1 and 2 years
Psychological state (optimism, anxiety, depression)
Time Frame: changes between 0,1 and 2 years
measured by HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale)
changes between 0,1 and 2 years

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
