Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Physical Health Composite Score - Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life (MSQOL) 54 Instrument

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 52

    The MSQOL-54 is a comprehensive health-related quality of life measure incorporating general and MS-specific questions into a single instrument.

    The developers used the SF-36 as a base and added 18 questions to address MS-specific problems, including fatigue and cognitive function.

    This 54-item questionnaire provides 12 sub-scales, two summary scores, and two extra single-item measures. The sub-scales are physical function, role limits-physical, emotional role restrictions, pain, emotional well-being, energy, health perceptions, social position, cognitive function, health distress, overall quality of life, and sexual function.

  15. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) Model - Physical Health Composite Score Change From Baseline Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life (MSQOL)-54

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 52

    Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) is a statistical model that combines linear regression and ANOVA to analyze the results of different treatments. In this outcome measure, ANCOVA was used to analyze change in the physical health composite score in treatment versus placebo. The ANCOVA model was used to compare HB-adMSC patients with placebo patients on Change from Baseline to Week 52 with a fixed factor of treatment, fixed stratification factors of MS severity, age and gender, and a covariate of the baseline value for the score on the corresponding outcome measure. This model allows us to test the significance of the effects of the treatment at Week 52. Total score for this subscale is 100, so the range of scores for the ANCOVA model (showing average change in scores) would be -100 to 100 (theoretically). Higher scores show better outcomes--in this model, a positive score would indicate improvement and a negative score indicates worsening. Subscales are interpreted separately.

  17. Bayesian Statistical Analysis - Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) Model - Physical Health Composite Score Change From Baseline Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life (MSQOL)-54

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 52

    Bayesian analysis is a statistical method that uses probability distributions to make statistical inferences about parameters using prior information. In this outcome measure, Bayesian analysis was used to analyze change in the physical health composite score in treatment versus placebo. In this study, Bayesian analysis was used to estimate the posterior distribution and to estimate the probability of the true treatment difference of change from baseline to Week 52. A linear model for each visit was constructed to model within-subject observation covariance structures by multivariate normal (MVN) distribution in the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) procedure. Total score for this subscale is 100, so the range of scores for the ANCOVA model (showing average change in scores) would be -100 to 100 (theoretically). Higher scores show better outcomes--in this model, a positive score would indicate improvement and a negative score indicates worsening. Subscales are interpreted separately.

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 52

    The EDSS is a method of quantifying disability in multiple sclerosis and monitoring changes in the level of disability over time. This scale ranges from 0 to 10 in 0.5-unit increments and a higher score represents increased disability. Scoring is based on an examination by a neurologist.
