Descripción detallada
Natalizumab is a pharmaceutical intervention used in the management of multiple sclerosis.
The decision to discontinue natalizumab therapy is often raised in patients defined as high-risk for PML despite good clinical efficacy. During the therapy cessation period following large phase III trials, a return to the prestudy disease activity was reached by four months post-discontinuation. Shorter therapy was associated with a trend for a more severe disease activity pointing to a possible 'rebound' effect after natalizumab discontinuation.
This study focuses on two different approaches: an immediate versus a step-wise/tapered down natalizumab discontinuation protocol, both with reinstitution of a different disease modifying therapy (DMT) within 1-6 months from the last natalizumab infusion.

Comparador activo: Immediate Discontinuation Group
Patients will discontinue the natalizumab therapy at once and initiate another disease modifying therapy at 1 month following the last natalizumab infusion.
The disease modifying therapy at 1 month following natalizumab discontinuation will be at the discretion of the neurologist and may differ among patients.
|
Patients will be randomized to one of two groups: The Immediate Discontinuation Group (stop natalizumab immediately and continue with new DMT 1 month afterward) and the Taper-off Group (two additional infusions of natalizumab, one at 6 weeks and the next at 8 weeks following discontinuation.
A new DMT will be initiated within 2 months of final natalizumab infusion).
|
|
Experimental: Taper-off Group
Patients will be administered two more natalizumab infusion, one at six weeks and the second at eight weeks (14 weeks from study entry), followed by six months natalizumab discontinuation.
Another DMT will be initiated within two months after the last natalizumab infusion.
