Prognostic indicators in pediatric clinically isolated syndrome

2017

To assess prognostic factors for a second clinical attack and a first disability worsening event in pediatric clinically isolated syndrome (pCIS) suggestive of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients. Objective: To assess prognostic factors for a second clinical attack and a first disability-worsening event in pediatric clinically isolated syndrome (pCIS) suggestive of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Methods: A cohort of 770 pCIS patients was followed up for at least 10 years. Cox proportional hazard models and Recursive Partitioning and Amalgamation (RECPAM) tree-regression were used to analyze data. Results: In pCIS, female sex and a multifocal onset were risk factors for a second clinical att…

Dimethyl fumarate vs Teriflunomide: an Italian time-to-event data analysis

2020

The introduction of oral disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) changed the therapeutic landscape and algorithms of RRMS treatment (1). In Europe, dimethyl fumarate (DMF) and teriflunomide (TRF) are approved as first-line agents and are often used as the initial therapeutic choice (2, 3). Pivotal trials showed the efficacy of both DMTs on controlling clinical relapses, disability accrual and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) activity (4-8). Both DMTs had overall good tolerability. There have been no head-to-head randomized trials to compare these two DMTs; however, several real-world evidence (RWE) studies have compared DMF and TRF and provided u…
