Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary Endpoints: The mean change of each subject affected by RRMS or relapsing SPMS from baseline in functional connectivity (resting-state) fMRI at month 24.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Endpoints: Clinicial measures (progression of disability) will be measured through change in Extended Disability Status Scale (EDSS) and Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC). Clinical measures (progression of disease activity) as measured through the number of relapses and annualized relapse rate. Cognitive decline as measured by change in Brief Repeatable Battery * Neuropsychological tests (BRB-N) scores. Correlations fMRI and clinical/cognitive outcomes. And Requirement for treatment with corticosteroids due to relapses.
