Comprehensive Longitudinal Investigation of Multiple Sclerosis (CLIMB Study) at Brigham and Women's Hospital

The CLIMB study is a large-scale, long-term study of patients with MS. It is designed to investigate the course of the disease in the current era of treatment. The main goals of the study are to:

  1. Identify predictors of future disease course when patients are at the beginning of their illness.
  2. Determine the effects of treatment on disease progression and accumulation of disability.

Subjects will have neurological exams and MRI yearly. Subjects will also donate blood samples and complete quality of life and mood questionnaires yearly.

Eligible subjects are those with:

  1. Diagnosis of MS or monosymptomatic disease
  2. 18 years of age or older
  3. Willing to have MRI yearly
  4. Willing to donate blood samples and complete questionnaires yearly
