Join us in our fight to improve treatment for Multiple Sclerosispatients
Didyouknow?
There is an unmet need to evaluate initial therapeutic strategies and strategies for switching therapies during the relapsing-remitting phase of multiple sclerosis (MS). Currently there is a lack of evidence- based guidelines to help MS providers determine which treatment strategy is best for patients with MS. There are many treatments for MS, but in this study doctors are trying to understand which types of treatments are most appropriate to begin with. Medical care only improves with the help

Why should Iparticipate?
Satisfaction that you may contribute to improved care for future MS patients Help improve decision-making for providers and greater community Help better understand how to treat people with MS
Whatmedicinewill I take?
Most treatments in the TREAT-MS study are FDA-approved for relapsing-remitting MS. If you participate, you will be randomly assigned (like a flip of a coin) to one of two standard types of therapy:
Whathappensat studyvisits?
A screening visit to see if the study is right for you Visit with your MS provider every 6 months for 4 years for medical check-ups and questionnaires Brain MRI at least yearly Brief online questionnaires collected between visits
HowdoIgetinvolved?
Please talk with your MS provider to see if TREAT-MS is a good fit for you. For more information, please e-mail TREATMS@jhmi.edu or visit [insert website]. [Insert POC name] [Insert POC number]
What isTREAT-MS?
TREAT-MS is a study where we hope to identify specific treatments that can prevent, delay, or lessen disabling effects of multiple sclerosis (MS) over time.
Who canparticipate?
You may be able to participate if you: Are 18-60 years of age Have relapsing-remitting MS (symptom flare-ups followed by periods with few to no symptoms) Have not been on chemotherapy in the past year Have never been treated with rituximab,
Have not been on any disease modifying therapy for MS for > 6 months duration Have not been on any MS treatment in the past 6 months Are HIV negative Traditional therapy, such as a shot or
Early aggressive therapy, such as an infusion With the advice and guidance of your MS provider, you will choose the specific therapy within the group you are assigned to that is the best fit for you. We value your participation, and you will be financially compensated for your time.
TRaditional versus Early Aggressive Therapy for Multiple Sclerosis (TREAT-MS) Trial
Protocol Number: IRB00143534 There is an unmet need to evaluate initial therapeutic strategies and strategies for switching therapies during the relapsing-remitting phase of multiple sclerosis (MS). Currently there is a lack of evidence- based guidelines to help clinicians determine which treatment strategy is best for patients with MS. Randomized controlled trial in people with relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS) N=900 Stratified by higher vs. lower risk for long term disability Randomized 1:1 to early aggressive vs. traditional disease-modifying therapy (DMT) class (specific therapy within assigned therapy class at the discretion of you and your patient)Inclusion Criteria
Aged 18-60 RRMS by 2017 McDonald criteria No chemo in last year HIV negative Must be EITHER JC virus antibody negative or low positive (index antibody titer <0.9), OR negative for: Hepatitis B and C, tuberculosisAbout the Study Exclusion Criteria
Use of any MS DMT in the past 6 months Prior use of rituximab, ocrelizumab, alemtuzumab, mitoxantrone or cladribine Prior use of any other MS DMT for > 6 months duration Use of other investigational drugs for MS UseStudy Activities
Study participation: 48+ months Evaluation includes: standardized neurologic exam/disability measures and other performance measures Standard-of-care brain MRIs at baseline, 6 months, 12 months and annually thereafter Routine Optical Coherence Tomography tests annually at select sites Clinic evaluation every 6 months Collect electronic patient reported outcomes Principal Investigators: Ellen M.

Final S Step IRB C Ceding Ac Accept t the S e Study-Speci cifi fic c Rel eliance P e Plan
Start-up performance is the dress rehearsal for enrollment performance and overall study performance. A rapid start-up not only improves trial performance but helps everyone feel confident & good about a job well done. We will organize ourselves with a schedule of deliverables, an order of start-up events, and use general tools and processes to accomplish your TREAT-MS site activation Together, we will use an electronic time manager over the 90 days for easier communication and progress tracking.
