NCT ID NCT06280742

First seen Oct 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 07, 2026 · Updated 31 times

Summary

This study uses a special PET-MRI scan with a tracer called [18F]-DPA-714 to detect brain inflammation in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Researchers want to see how inflammation in brain lesions relates to worsening disability. About 41 adults with active MS will be scanned at multiple hospitals in France. The goal is to create a national network for this type of imaging, which may help predict disease course and guide treatments in the future.
