Fingolimod Versus Interferon Beta 1b in Cognitive Symptoms (Cognition)

30. ledna 2017 aktualizováno: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A 18-month, Open-label, Rater-blinded, Randomized, Multi-center, Active-controlled, Parallel-group Pilot Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Fingolimod in Comparison to Interferon Beta 1b in Treating the Cognitive Symptoms Associated to Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis and to Assess Possible Relationship of These Effects to Regional Brain Atrophy

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate, by means of a specific cognitive test battery (Brief Repeatable Battery and Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System scale), the slowing/reduction of cognitive dysfunction progression in RRMS patients after 18 months of treatment with fingolimod in comparison with interferon beta 1b treatment, and to evaluate which test of the battery is the most sensitive in detecting differences between treatment groups.

Change From Screening in Selective Reminding Test - Long-Term Storage (SRT-LTS) Raw Score
Časové okno: Screening (-1month), 18 month
Brief Repeatable Battery (BRB)- widely used as a clinical and research tool, with 68% sensitivity and 85% specificity. It consists of the serial administration of 5 tests. One of the tests is SRT (Selective Reminding Test) for episodic memory (verbal learning and delayed recall). A word recalled on two consecutive trials is considered to have entered long-term storage (LTS) on the first of these trials and scored as LTS on all following trials. The total of the words in LTS of all six trials is then summed. The total score ranged from 0 to 72. Higher values represent a better outcome.

Screening (-1month), 18 month
Change From Screening in Word List Generation (WLG)
Časové okno: Screening (-1month), 18 month
Word List Generation (COWAT/WLG): The COWAT assesses verbal fluency on semantic stimulus by asking the patient to produce as many words as possible belonging to a semantic category. The test assessed the verbal fluency, recorded all the possible correct word that a patients should give in 90 sec. No maximum range is available. Higher values represent a better outcome. The score was the number of correct words. The more words the patient pronounces, the better it is. We can imagine that the minimum value might be zero words, , but it is not a score scale.
