Brief Summary: This prospective, non-interventional research registry is designed to study the comparative effectiveness and comparative safety of approved treatments for MS in a cohort of patients cared for by neurologists across North America. Secondary objectives include analyzing the epidemiology and natural history of the disease, its comorbidities, and current treatment practices.
Detailed Description: The objective of the CorEvitas Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Registry is to create a national cohort of patients with MS. Data collected will be used to better characterize the natural history of the disease and to extensively evaluate the effectiveness and safety of medications approved for the treatment of MS. This will be done through the standardized collection of validated patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and clinician-reported outcomes (ClinRO), the prevalence and incidence of comorbidities and adverse events, medication utilization patterns and patient productivity measures. The design is a prospective, non-interventional, observational registry for patients with MS under the care of a licensed neurologist. Longitudinal follow-up data is collected from both patients and their treating neurologist (also known as "Providers" for a CorEvitas registry study) every 6 months (+/- 30 days) during routine clinical encounters using CorEvitas registry forms. These forms collect data on patient demographics, disease duration, medical history (including all prior and current treatments for MS), smoking status, alcohol use, disease activity and severity, pain, as well as other clinician- and patient-reported outcomes, comorbidities and adverse events, infections, hospitalizations, and other targeted safety outcomes. After the enrollment visit, MS patients and physicians will complete the follow-up questionnaires during regularly scheduled clinical encounters. The goal is to collect data from patients and providers at six month intervals. Adverse events may be volunteered spontaneously by the subject, or be discovered as a result of general questioning by the Investigator. During all CorEvitas related visits with the Investigator, subjects will be questioned regarding the occurrence of adverse events.
