Multiple sclerosis is one of the absolute success stories in terms of disease-modifying therapy. Nevertheless, the search for new concepts continues and the RED4MS study is looking in a new direction. Neurologist Dr. Andreas Lutterotti and his colleagues are researching and developing a novel approach to retraining the immune system. Find out more about the RED4MS study and how this therapy aims to reduce the symptoms of MS while maintaining normal immune function, offering hope for more targeted and safer treatment.

Dr. Lutterotti provides insights into the study's objectives, patient eligibility, and what participants can expect. This early study is initially concerned with exploring the safety of the therapy. Only in the second step will the right dose be found that hits the sweet spot between efficacy and tolerability. Find out more about the possible effects of the therapy on daily life, the strict safety measures, and what might happen if the results are positive.

Introduction – Who is Dr. Andreas Lutterotti?

I'm Andreas Lutterotti, originally from Austria, now living in Switzerland. I'm a neurologist with a focus on MS and a Chief Medical Officer at Cellaris AG. I'm married, have three children, and enjoy biking and traveling with my family.

Finally, what message of hope or encouragement would you like to share with the listeners?

Treatment development in MS has been very successful in a relatively short period of time. With more focus neuroprotective/-regenerative therapies and improvement of symptoms like fatigue we will hopefully improve the life of patients with MS in the future.
