New study tracks pregnancy in women with neuroimmune diseases
NCT ID NCT07653984
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study follows 100 women with neuroimmune diseases (like multiple sclerosis or myasthenia gravis) through pregnancy and up to five years after. Researchers will track disease activity, pregnancy complications, and baby health to learn how these conditions affect fertility and pregnancy. The goal is to give doctors better tools to manage these diseases during childbearing years.
What this could mean

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could provide doctors with better strategies to manage neuroimmune diseases during pregnancy, improving outcomes for mothers and babies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly test a new therapy. Results may take years and might not apply to all patients.

Who is studied
The project aims to recruit women with neuroimmune diseases who are planning to conceive, starting on March 21, 2024. These participants will be enrolled through the Multidisciplinary Outpatient Clinic for Fertility and Neuroimmune Diseases at the Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University for an epidemiological survey and prospective clinical study. Age-matched healthy women planning pregnancy will be recruited from the Department of Obstetrics at the Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University to serve as healthy controls for the epidemiological and prospective clinical study.
