NCT ID NCT07273604
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether two types of talk therapy—cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and relaxation training—could improve mood and thinking in people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. 140 participants with mild to moderate disability were randomly assigned to one of the therapies or standard care. The goal was to see if these therapies could reduce anxiety and depression and boost memory and attention as a complement to usual MS treatment.
