Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 50 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Males or females, aged between 18 and 50 years.
  • Diagnosis of RR-MS according to McDonald 2010 diagnostic criteria with a prior brain MRI that demonstrates lesions consistent with RRMS, both within the past year.
  • No evidence of relapse during the 60 days prior to enrollment.
  • EDSS score of 0-5 at screening.
  • Women of childbearing potential who have a negative pregnancy test (serum HCG) at screening.
  • Men or women of reproductive potential who commit to use adequate contraception during the study and for 1 month following the last day of treatment.
  • Subjects must be capable of understanding the purpose and risks of the study and provide written, informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Diagnosis of Secondary Progressive MS, Primary Progressive MS or Progressive Relapsing MS.
  • Normal baseline brain MRI.
  • History of any clinically significant autoimmune disease: inflammatory bowel disease, diabetes, lupus or severe asthma.
  • Current or prior malignancies (excluding non-melanoma skin carcinoma or in situ carcinoma of the cervix that has been adequately treated.)
  • Significant organ dysfunction, including cardiac, renal (eGFR ≤ 60 ml/min.), liver, central nervous system, pulmonary, vascular, gastrointestinal, endocrine, or metabolic (e.g., creatinine ≥ 1.6 mg/dL; ALT or AST ≥ 1.5x the upper limit of normal), history of myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, or arrhythmias within 6 months prior to enrollment.
  • Steroid therapy within 60 days prior to enrollment, with the exception of corticosteroids or ACTH for relapse treatment during the course of the study.
  • Known allergy to Gadolinium-DTPA
  • Therapy with any immunomodulatory drugs within 3 months prior to enrollment, including but not limited to interferons, glatiramir acetate, BG-12, teriflunomide, laquinimod and IV immunoglobulin.
  • Treatment at any time with immunosuppressive drugs such as cladribine, total lymphoid irradiation, monoclonal antibody treatment, mitoxantrone, Tysabri, fingolimod, cytoxan, methotrexate.
  • Participation in any investigational therapy within one year prior to enrollment, unless given approval by PI.
  • Known or suspected current or past alcohol or drug abuse within one year prior to enrollment.
  • Any medical, psychiatric or other condition that could result in a subject not being able to comply with protocol requirements.
