prednisone and Multiple Sclerosis

prednisone has been researched along with Multiple Sclerosis in 190 studies

Prednisone: A synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid derived from CORTISONE. It is biologically inert and converted to PREDNISOLONE in the liver.
prednisone : A synthetic glucocorticoid drug that is particularly effective as an immunosuppressant, and affects virtually all of the immune system. Prednisone is a prodrug that is converted by the liver into prednisolone (a beta-hydroxy group instead of the oxo group at position 11), which is the active drug and also a steroid.

Multiple Sclerosis: An autoimmune disorder mainly affecting young adults and characterized by destruction of myelin in the central nervous system. Pathologic findings include multiple sharply demarcated areas of demyelination throughout the white matter of the central nervous system. Clinical manifestations include visual loss, extra-ocular movement disorders, paresthesias, loss of sensation, weakness, dysarthria, spasticity, ataxia, and bladder dysfunction. The usual pattern is one of recurrent attacks followed by partial recovery (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, RELAPSING-REMITTING), but acute fulminating and chronic progressive forms (see MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, CHRONIC PROGRESSIVE) also occur.

"The author presents evidence from published papers of research done by numerous investigators that Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease, that the target tissue is the myelin sheath which covers the nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord, that Myelin Basic Protein (MBP) is the antigen or one of the antigens involved, that the autoimmune reaction is effected by sensitized lymphocytes together with a specific antibody, that Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis (EAE) produced in animals can be used as a model for MS, and that the autoimmune reaction in MS can possibly be suppressed by the use of MBP given by an intravenous procedure together with an immunosuppressive drug and a corticosteroid."7.67Suppression of the immune reaction in multiple sclerosis might be achieved by intravenous injections of myelin basic protein, concomitant with the administration of an immunosuppressant and a corticosteroid.

Trial Outcomes

ARMS (Assessing Relapses in Multiple Sclerosis) TCS Scores (Total Composite Scores)

"Patients completed the ARMS survey after treatment for the new relapse.The ARMS questionnaire (assessing relapses in multiple sclerosis) was developed by a panel of expert MS nurses. Part one consists of 7 questions designed to assess relapse symptoms, impact on activities of daily living, and response to past treatment for MS relapses. Part two consists of 7 questions to evaluate treatment response in terms of relief from symptoms, functioning and tolerability.~The TCS score was calculated only for the time point after treatment of relapse. It was a sum of questions 4 (symptom improvement), 5 (ADL), and 6 (return to previous state of health (RSH)) were evaluated. Scores range from 0 to 30 units, with higher scores representing greater improvement/better functioning." (NCT02258217)

Changes in Color Vision Total Error Score From Baseline Based Upon the Farnsworth Munsell Hue 100 Sort Test (FM100).

Dalfampridine will change color vision Total Error Scores from baseline on the Farnsworth Munsell 100 Hue Sort Test. Farnsworth Munsell 100 Hue Test requires placing 100 color palettes in the correct order based upon color hue. Scores are determined by the frequency and severity of any displacement in the correct order. One error equates to one misplaced hue, by one step or position. An error score greater than 500 indicates virtually no color discrimination. An error score of 0 indicates no errors in ordering the hues. A Total Error Score of 0 to 128 could be seen in a normal population. (NCT01337986)

Odds Ratio Quartile of Visual Field Index

"The Visual Field Index (VFI) is a global index that assigns a number between 1% to 100% based on an aggregate percentage of visual function, with 100% being a perfect age-adjusted visual field.~Probability of falling in the best quartile for visual field (VFI) measures (Q1), relative to the three next quartiles for worse VFIs (Q2-4), while on Dalfampridine vs Placebo. Due to the clustered observations at different times in a cross-over design, the visual field data is not suited to a normal theory model and should not be expressed as a continuous variable. Thus, a categorical model that uses a multinomial distribution for measurement of 4 categories was selected for proper statistical modeling, with results expressed as odds ratios." (NCT01337986)
