Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time 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
| Measure | Time 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? | — |
