Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Nerispirdine in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis

January 28, 2016 updated by: Sanofi

A 14-Week, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Nerispirdine 50 mg, 100 mg, and 200 mg in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis.

The primary objective is to assess the activity of nerispirdine in improving the ability to walk, in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).

Secondary objectives:

  • To assess other measures of walking ability, tiredness, and lower limb muscular strength, spasticity, clinical assessment by subject and clinical assessment of change by the Study Investigator
  • To assess the safety and tolerance of nerispirdine
  • To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) parameters of nerispirdine
