New York, New YorkAges 18–65 - NCT05982925Recruiting
Brain imaging study in multiple sclerosis
This study uses MRI scans to look at how multiple sclerosis affects the outer layer of the brain over time. It aims to learn more about the disease to help improve future treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06203106Recruiting
NYSCF Scientific Discovery Biobank
This study collects blood, saliva, or skin samples from people with certain neurological conditions and from healthy volunteers to help researchers better understand and find treatments for these diseases.
New York, New YorkAges 4 weeks+ - NCT05877963RecruitingPhase 3
Ublituximab treatment plan for relapsing multiple sclerosis
This Phase 3 trial tests the safety and effectiveness of a modified treatment plan using ublituximab for relapsing multiple sclerosis. It also studies how the drug behaves in the body and aims to improve disease control while monitoring side effects.
New York, New YorkAges 18–65 - NCT07304154RecruitingPhase 1
Study of KITE-363 for autoimmune nerve diseases
This trial tests a new treatment called KITE-363 for people with certain autoimmune nerve diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, or chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, that have not responded well to standard therapies. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective.
New York, New YorkAges 18–75 - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Mineola, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06486116Recruiting

What taking part in a multiple sclerosis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
