Lead exposure and multiple sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether lead exposure is linked to multiple sclerosis (MS). If you join, researchers may test your lead levels to see if there's a connection with your MS.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 20 and 50 years old.
- You must have a confirmed multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis using the McDonald criteria.
- You must NOT have any other autoimmune disease (like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis).
- You must NOT have chronic kidney or liver disease.

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.
This study follows people with multiple sclerosis over time to learn more about the disease and improve care. If you join, you will help researchers understand MS better, which could lead to better treatments.
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 “subclinical markers,” meaning early or hidden body changes that may show how relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) is doing even when symptoms seem mild. It may help researchers find better ways to monitor MS and detect changes sooner.
This study looks for signs of “synapse damage” in multiple sclerosis using blood tests and brain imaging (MRI). The goal is to find biomarkers that may help better understand MS and how it changes over time.
This study follows people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and some healthy people in the local area to better understand MS and related nerve conditions. It may help researchers learn which symptoms and scan changes show up over time.
