Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: • Written declaration of consent for participation in the study on the use of sNfL in healthcare practice • Written declaration of consent for the ms register • Relapsing MS (RMS) -> active SPMS and RRMS • DMT stable for 6 month or no therapy for 6 months • Inclusion possible directly after diagnosis • No traumatic brain injury (TBI) or serious accident in the last 3 months

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: no relapsing-remitting course of ms

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
• Confirmation of the predictive value of sNfL for clinical and radiological disease activity (Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), MRI activity (T2 lesions, brain volume), MSIS-29) • Investigation of the variability of sNfL over time and between different assays and different laboratories (validity of sNfL)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
• Is sNfL, used alone or in combination with further disease activity indicators (relapse, MRI activity, EDSS), by treating neurologists to make treatment decisions (maintenance, restart, change of treatment)? • Are there relapse-independent GFAP changes over time as an indication for a relapse-independent progression?
