Stratification of Risks of Conversion of Radiologically Isolated Syndromes (RIS) by Identifying Biomarkers in Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid.

Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes

Summary

Radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS) often precedes Multiple Sclerosis (MS) but some patients have no symptoms. This study aims to use biological samples and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from four large cohorts of patients with MS in the United States, Europe and France, to stratify the chances of RIS developing into MS. Identifying early biomarkers to predict greater disease severity would have a significant impact, not only on RIS but also on the entire clinical spectrum of multiple sclerosis.
