Safety and Monitoring of the treatment with Disease-Modifying Therapies for Multiple Sclerosis
Curr Rev Clin Exp Pharmacol. 2022 Apr 12. doi: 10.2174/2772432817666220412110720. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Disease-Modifying Therapies (DMTs) for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) are widely used given their proven efficacy in the relapsing form of the disease, while recently Siponimod and Ocrelizumab have been approved for the progressive forms of the disease. Currently, 22 Disease-modifying drugs are approved by the FDA, while in 2012, only nine were in the market. From March 2019 until August 2020, six new drugs were approved.

Brain atrophy patterns in multiple sclerosis patients treated with natalizumab and its clinical correlates
ConclusionAtrophy in RR-MS patients treated with NTZ is regional and targeting highly cognitive regions mainly of the subcortical gray matter and the cerebellum. The cerebellum atrophy was a marker of physical disability progression. NTZ did not accelerate the atrophy process in MS and may play a neuroprotective role by increasing the thalamus volume.
