Clinical trial of a new compound that is being developed for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS)

 

The research physician about this research

This trial consists of two parts (part 1 and part 2) and each of these parts is composed of two periods. You can only participate in one part of the trial and you will receive the compound twice: once per period. 
In this trial, cerebrospinal fluid will be collected in each part via a lumbar puncture. This procedure will be performed at four different moments during the trial (twice per period). A fine needle will be inserted at the space between two vertebrae in the lower back. This procedure will be performed by an experienced specialist (anesthesiologist).

Für Deutschland: Bitte beachten Sie: Die Arzneimittelstudien finden im niederländischen Groningen statt. Sie müssen Englisch oder Niederländisch sprechen, verstehen und lesen können, um an einer Studie teilnehmen zu können.

Note:

  • You cannot participate in the trial if you have participated in another clinical trial in the 90 days prior to the first compound administration in this clinical trial (counting from the follow-up visit). For some trials this term will be 6 months, this will be discussed during your telephone screening. 
  • For this trial, you cannot (have) receive(d) an influenza and/or COVID-19 vaccine within 6 weeks prior to the start and during this trial.
  • To determine if you are suitable to participate in this trial, you will undergo a medical screening. Depending on availability, this can be performed in Groningen or in Utrecht. The medical screening consists of two separate visits. After the regular medical screening at ICON there will be an additional visit to perform an MRI scan.

As a female you can only participate if you are not pregnant, not breastfeeding and meet one of the following conditions:

  • You are using hormonal contraception (for example the contraceptive pill or intra-uterine device containing hormones) in combination with a condom;

  • You are not sexually active according to your lifestyle;
  • You are only sexually active with a partner of the same sex.

 

Compensation

Based on the number of short visits between the two periods (depending on the group you will participate in) you will receive the following compensation:

  • 1 short visit between both periods: You will receive a gross compensation of € 6553 for participation in one of the groups.
  • 3 short visits between both periods: You will receive a gross compensation of € 6993 for participation in one of the groups.
  • 4 short visits between both periods: You will receive a gross compensation of € 7213 for participation in one of the groups.

Travel expenses will be reimbursed based on the distance traveled (€ 0.21 net per kilometer) with a minimum of € 13 and a maximum of € 176.40 (840 kilometers) per round trip, regardless of the mode of transportation.

Period of stay and research

For both parts, the trial consists of 2 periods during which you will stay in the research facility in Groningen (location van Swietenlaan 6) for 5 days (4 nights ) in each period. There are 1 to 4 short visits between both periods. This is different between each group. The second period will be followed by 10 short visits. The follow-up visit will take place during your last short visit.

Note: You must be available for all dates to be able to participate in this clinical trial. 

 

Explanation video

In this trial, cerebrospinal fluid is collected via a lumbar puncture. Researchers can extract important information from this fluid. A lumbar puncture is a safe procedure that is performed by an experienced specialist (anaesthesiologist). In this video we explain how this works.
