NCT ID NCT05123443

First seen Mar 15, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study looks at whether certain brain lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) that have a rim of iron around them are linked to more severe disability. Researchers will analyze old MRI scans and collect new blood samples from 100 people with MS to see if genetic differences affect the formation of these lesions. Some participants may also get a new MRI to track how the lesions change over time.
