Genders Eligible for Study
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or female between 21 and 65 years old, inclusive.
- Must be capable of understanding and providing written informed consent, including subject authorization under the health insurance portability and accountability act (HIPPA), prior to any study related procedures that are not part of routine medical care.
- Has an EDSS score at the screening visit of 2.0 to 7.0 inclusive.
- Have a diagnosis of clinically definite SPMS. (Lublin, 2014)
- Are considered neurologically stable for > 30 days prior to both screening, baseline and week 48.
- Must be otherwise healthy without confounding diseases.
- Subject has decided to pursue cladribine tablets as their disease modifying therapy (DMT) of choice, and have signed a study specific informed consent form.
- Must be willing and physically able to comply with all required protocol visits and complete all assessments.
- Must be willing to complete 2 years of routine clinic follow-ups after study completion as per cladribine tablets FDA guidelines.
- Must have read the FDA approved patient labeling (medication guide) and be counseled, risk of teratogenicity, lactation, lymphopenia and other hematologic toxicity, infections, liver injury, hypersensitivity, cardiac failure and treatment handling and administration.
- If female: must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screen and week 48 and a negative urine pregnancy test at baseline. All females must agree to notify us immediately if they have concern of possible pregnancy.
If female: be neither pregnant or breastfeeding, nor attempting to conceive AND
• Use a highly effective method of contraception throughout the entire duration of the study and for 6 months (5 menstrual cycles) following completion of the last dose of study medication. As it is currently unknown whether cladribine tablets may reduce the effectiveness of systemically acting hormonal contraceptives, a barrier method of contraception should be implemented for the duration of the study.
- If Male: must be willing to use contraception to avoid contributing to pregnancies 6 months following the last dose of study medication.
Exclusion Criteria:
