A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Remibrutinib in Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

The purpose of this study is to provide efficacy and safety data for remibrutinib in patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS)

Evaluation of an Online, On Demand Multimodal Wellness Program to Reduce Fatigue and Improve Quality of Life in Progressive Multiple Sclerosis.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an online wellness program can lower fatigue and improve mood and quality of life in people with progressive multiple sclerosis who are 45 to 70 years old and are experiencing significant fatigue disability. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the online wellness program lower fatigue after 3 months and further lower fatigue after 6 months? * Does the online wellness program improve anxiety, depression, and quality of life after 3 months and lead to additional improvements after 6 months? Researchers will compare participants who receive immediate access to the online wellness program with participants who continue their usual care and receive access to the program after the study ends. Participants will: * Complete online surveys at the start of the study, at 3 months, and at 6 months. Each survey session takes less than 1 hour. * Complete a 7-day run-in period before randomization to confirm their interest and ability to complete study activities. * Be assigned by chance to either the online wellness program group or the wait-list control group. Participants in the online wellness program group will: * Receive access to the "Creating Health" online course through the University of Iowa Canvas platform. * Work through five self-paced education modules over 6 months. Topics include nutrition, stress management, and physical activity. * Have access to monthly group coaching calls by Zoom. * Have access to an online exercise platform. * Have access to email and text support from the study team. Participants in the wait-list control group will: * Continue their usual diet, lifestyle, and medical care during the 6-month study period. * Complete the same study surveys as the intervention group. * Receive full access to the online wellness program, online exercise platform and support materials after completing their final 6-month surveys. At the end of the study, all participants will complete final surveys about their symptoms, quality of life, and their experience with the program. Active study participation ends after the 6-month assessments are completed.

A Phase 2a Study of SUN-627 in Participants With Non-Active Secondary Progressive and Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SPMS/PPMS)

The goal of this Phase 2 clinical trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of SUN-627 in men and women aged 18-70 years old with a diagnosis of non-active SPMS/PPMS.

Treatment of Participants With Primary or Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

The goal of this clinical trial is to treat male and female participants with two types of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) called primary progressive or secondary progressive MS. The main questions the trial aims to answer are the following: * Is TRX319 safe when administered to patients with progressive forms of MS? * At what dose does TRX319 work the best to treat participants with primary and or secondary progressive MS? * Is pre-conditioning (with Bendamustine) needed to allow TRX319 to better treat participants with primary and/or secondary progressive MS? Participants will be asked to be on study for up 1 year and may receive up to 3 total administrations of TRX319. While on study, participants will have blood tests and other assessments (MRI scans and lumbar punctures) done to understand the safety of TRX319 and how it may benefit their multiple sclerosis.

The Effect of Rituximab on Cognitive and Hand Functions in Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

The goal of this clinical trial is to know if rituximab can improve cognitive and hand functions in secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) patients with high disability (EDSS 6.5 or more). The main questions it aims to answer are: Can rituximab improve cognitive and hand functions in SPMS patients? Can rituximab improve the quality of life and the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) in SPMS patients? Researchers will compare patients who receive rituximab to patient who receive placebo to see the effects of rituximab on cognition, hand functions, quality of life and EDSS. Demographic and clinical data as age, gender, disease duration and EDSS will be obtained from each participant. Participants will perform The Brief International Cognitive Assessment for Multiple Sclerosis (BICAMS), The Nine-Hole Peg Test (9-HPT) and The MS-QLQ27 questionnaire at baseline and after one year of receiving either rituximab or placebo.

Study of NG01 Cell Therapy in Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of repeated intrathecal (IT) injection of NG01, autologous bone marrow derived human stromal cells, in treating Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SPMS), compared to placebo. The study will assess the proportion of participants demonstrating improvement in walking ability, defined as a reduction in the average time to complete the Timed 25-Foot Walk (T25FW) at 6, 9, and 12 months compared to baseline. This will be analyzed by the mean change in walking speed across these time points. The study will also evaluate the incidence and nature of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs). Participants will receive intrathecal administrations of NG01, by lumbar puncture, and will be followed up for 6 months after their fourth administration.
