Omega-3 Fatty Acid Treatment in Multiple Sclerosis
Abstract
Based on previous clinical studies indicating beneficial treatment effects of omega-3 fatty acids in multiple sclerosis, and the increasing evidence of anti-inflammatory effects of omega-3 fatty acids, this study aims to evaluate treatment effects of concentrated omega-3 fatty acids (Triomar™) in MS, both as monotherapy and in combination with standard immunomodulatory therapy defined as interferon-beta 1a (Rebif™).
Conditions: Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis.
Primary outcome: MRI disease activity measured by the number of new T1-enhancing lesions during the six months of treatment.; MRI disease activity measured by the number of new T1-hypo-intensive lesions (black holes) after 24 months of treatment..
Enrollment: 100 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 100 participants or records.
