Study genes and environment in multiple sclerosis risk
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how genes and life exposures may relate to developing multiple sclerosis (MS) or to MS itself. You may be invited if you have a specific connection to MS or certain past immune-related treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You live in the United States
- You are a close family member (parent, child, or sibling) of someone with MS, or
- You previously took anti-TNF (a biologic immune medicine) for a condition other than MS, such as Crohn’s disease, psoriasis, or rheumatoid arthritis, or
- You were referred for evaluation of a first-time neurologic symptom but do not yet have an MS diagnosis

This study looks at how immune-related brain or spinal cord illness shows up using exams, MRI scans, and sometimes a spinal fluid test (lumbar puncture), plus collected blood and other samples. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and improve future diagnosis or treatments.
This study creates a registry for people with multiple sclerosis (MS) to track their health over time. The information gathered may help researchers better understand MS and improve care.
This study looks at people who are at higher risk for multiple sclerosis (MS), to better understand early changes before MS is diagnosed. It may help doctors identify who is more likely to develop MS and how to monitor them sooner.
This study looks at genetic information and blood test signals to understand why some people with early MS develop a worse outcome. It may help doctors predict who is at higher risk and better understand disease mechanisms.
This study looks at whether lead exposure is linked to multiple sclerosis. It compares lead levels in people with MS and healthy volunteers.
This study follows people with multiple sclerosis to learn more about the disease and how it affects overall health. Researchers will collect information about your symptoms, treatments, and health outcomes over time to better understand MS and improve care.
