Brief Summary:

The primary objective is to assess the activity of nerispirdine in improving the ability to walk, in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).

Secondary objectives:

  • To assess other measures of walking ability, tiredness, and lower limb muscular strength, spasticity, clinical assessment by subject and clinical assessment of change by the Study Investigator
  • To assess the safety and tolerance of nerispirdine
  • To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) parameters of nerispirdine

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase

Detailed Description:
Total duration per patient is approximately 19 weeks in total, comprising a 3-week screening period inclusive of a 2-week placebo run-in period, a 14-week treatment period, and a 2-week placebo run-out (follow-up) period
