JC-Virus (JCV) Antibody Program (STRATIFY-1)

October 4, 2016 updated by: Biogen

JCV Antibody Program in Patients With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis Receiving or Considering Treatment With Tysabri®: STRATIFY-1

The primary objective is to define the prevalence of serum anti-JCV antibody in relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS) participants receiving Tysabri® (natalizumab) or being considered for such treatment. Secondary objectives are to analytically validate the anti-JCV antibody assay in a plasma matrix and to determine changes in anti-JCV antibody status over time.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Prevalence of serum anti-JC virus (JCV) antibody
Time Frame: Day 1
Prevalence of anti-JCV antibodies will be estimated as the number of participants with anti-JCV antibodies detected in serum divided by the total number of participants with a serum sample that was evaluated.
Day 1
Number of participants with a false negative test
Time Frame: Day 1
Confirm the false negative rate for serum anti-JCV antibody [assay].
Day 1

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Changes in JCV antibody status over time
Time Frame: Every 6 months for 2 Years
Every 6 months for 2 Years
