MS vs. NMOSD comparison study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study compares two conditions that affect the nervous system: multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Researchers want to understand differences between them, which may help with diagnosis and treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 50 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with MS (either new to treatment or on therapy) or NMOSD (not yet on treatment).
- You have not had a relapse (worsening of symptoms) in the last 3 months.
- You are willing to have blood samples taken and to follow up with visits and MRI scans.
- You can give written permission (informed consent) to be in the study.

This study follows people with NMOSD (a rare autoimmune disease that can cause vision loss and paralysis) to learn more about the condition. It may help doctors better understand and treat NMOSD in the future.
This study looks at a specific gene change in people with MS, NMOSD, or MOGAD to see how common it is. By joining, you help researchers learn more about these conditions and possible future treatments.
This is a registry that collects health information from adults with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). It aims to better understand NMOSD and support future research, including studies of emerging therapies.
This study compares autonomic nervous system function in people with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). It aims to understand how these conditions affect automatic body functions like heart rate and digestion.
This trial uses brain MRI and eye imaging tests to study research markers in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and related neurologic conditions. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and how they change over time.
This observational study follows people with various immune-related neurological conditions, such as multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica, and autoimmune encephalitis. It aims to better understand these diseases and their progression over time.
