Identification of this biomarker would enable shorter and smaller clinical trials resulting in the faster development of much needed treatments for MS, specifically neuro-reparative therapies. The etiology of disease progression is conduction block, demyelination and axonal degeneration. Evoked potentials provide a direct assessment of the underlying etiologies of disease progression in MS. They are a functional assessment of multiple pathways, including visual, motor and sensory, evaluating the integrity of myelin and axons.\n\nThe variability of motor evoked potentials (MEP) measures has limited multimodal evoked potential (mmEP) use in international, multicenter clinical trials. MEP evaluation does significantly contribute to the predictive value of mmEP's. Recent advances in technology and establishment of standardized protocols for MEP reduces the variability associated with this procedure. The objective of this study is to evaluate the reliability and feasibility of MEP and SSEP in an international, multicenter trial so that mmEP can be further evaluated as a biomarker for disease progression. The rationale for this study is to explore the feasibility and reliability of MEP's and somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP's) in a multicenter clinical trial for potential use as a biomarker that can predict clinical progression/improvement in international clinical trials evaluating remyelinating therapies.\n\nStudy Objectives and Endpoints:\n\nObjective:\n\nThe primary objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and test-retest reliability of MEP's and (SSEP's) in a multicenter clinical trial in healthy subjects and subjects with MS.\n\nEndpoints:\n\nThe primary reliability endpoint will be the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of the following evoked potential parameters\n\nMotor Evoked parameters that will be measured:\n\n* MEP latency\n* Central motor conduction time (CMCT) root latency methods\n* MEP amplitude\n* MEP amplitude to compound motor amplitude ratio (MEP-M ratio) for the right and left abductor digiti minimi (ADM) and the right and left tibialis anterior (TA)\n* Somatosensory evoked potential parameters will include Evoked potential latencies for both upper and lower limbs bilaterally.\n\nStudy Design:\n\nThis multinational, multicenter study will be conducted in healthy adult volunteers and MS patients to establish the feasibility and reliability of mmEP's. A total of 40 subjects, 10 (5 healthy and 5 MS) from each of the 4 sites will be enrolled.\n\nThe study will consist of two visits, 1-30 days apart, during which subjects will be screened to confirm eligibility and will complete all specified study assessments.\n\nStudy Locations:\n\nCanada, Germany, Switzerland and Italy, with 1 site in each country.\n\nNumber of Planned Subjects:\n\nA minimum of 40 subjects are planned for this study. Subjects who withdraw from the study prior to completion of the second visit may be replaced at the discretion of the investigator.\n\nStudy Population:\n\nThis study will be conducted in subjects 25 to 58 years of age, inclusive, who are either healthy volunteers (HV) or have been diagnosed with clinically definite MS who have a detectable lesion by MEP or SSEP.\n\nStudy Groups:\n\nTwo groups, healthy volunteers and clinically definite MS will be included.\n\nDuration of Study Participation:\n\nStudy duration for each subject will be two visits, the second visit schedule \\>24 hours-30 days from the first visit\n\nCriteria for Evaluation:\n\nKey Study Assessments:\n\nElectrophysiological. MEP's and SSEPs will be measured in both upper and lower limbs bilaterally. All studies will be read locally and reviewed by a blinded reader at another center. The ICC of every measured evoked potential parameter will be determined on both the central and local reads."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '58 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Healthy volunteers and MS patients aged 18 to 58 that have no other neurological comorbities that could affect evoked potential responses', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* To be eligible to participate in this study, candidates must meet the following eligibility criteria at Screening, or at the time point specified in the individual eligibility criterion listed (HV cohort):\n\n 1.
