Interventional Clinical Trial for CCSVI in Multiple Sclerosis Patients

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Multiple Sclerosis
Interventions
Procedure: Catheter venography with balloon venoplasty
Device: Catheter venography with balloon venoplasty and balloon
Registration Number
NCT01864941
Lead Sponsor
University of British Columbia
Brief Summary

To investigate the safety and tolerability of balloon venoplasty compared to sham in Multiple Sclerosis patients with Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency (CCSVI) as measured by adverse events occurring within 48 weeks of the procedure.

Detailed Description

Overview of study objectives are:

* To determine the safety and tolerability of venoplasty of CCSVI in Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

* To determine the short term and long term impact on validated patient measures and by physician and radiologic reported MS outcomes.

* To determine the short term and long term recurrence rate of CCSVI for veins that have been treated with venoplasty
