Clinnova-MS: A Prospective Cohort Study of Patients With Multiple Sclerosis: A Trans-regional Digital Health Effort Unlocking the Potential of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science in Health Care
Luxembourg100 participantsStarted 2026-06
Plain-language summary
The Clinnova-Multiple Sclerosis (MS) study is part of the Clinnova program (NCT06526364; NCT06235684 and NCT05733702), which seeks to advance precision medicine and the digitalization of healthcare through high-quality, interoperable health data.
This program focuses on people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and aims to identify objective surrogate markers derived from clinical, epidemiological, imaging, and omics data that can predict disease activity, such as progression or relapses.
By combining data science and artificial intelligence, the project seeks to improve patient stratification, support personalized therapeutic decisions, and provide insights into the mechanisms underlying treatment response and disease progression.
Although many therapies are available for MS, it remains challenging to determine the most appropriate strategy for each patient and to prevent long-term disability. Current treatments mainly target relapses and inflammation, with limited effects on chronic progression. Clinnova-MS will collect and analyze real-world and research data to better understand variability in disease activity and treatment outcomes, enabling more precise, evidence-based care within the standard of care. This study represents the first step toward the broader Clinnova objective: developing sustainable, personalized, and preventive healthcare for people living with MS.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
