First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated Jun 10, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study collects lymph fluid from the chest of 24 people (some with MS, some healthy) to compare immune cells in the blood versus deep lymph system. In MS participants, researchers also look at how the FDA-approved drug ofatumumab changes these cells. The goal is to better understand MS, not to treat it directly.
