Best supportive care for patients with primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) in Germany prior to ocrelizumab treatment: Final results from the RETRO PPMS study.
Background: Best supportive care (BSC) measures are an essential component for the management of primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS).
Objectives: RETRO PPMS (ML39631) is the first study to systematically analyze the therapeutic journey and standard of BSC of patients with PPMS in Germany.
Design: This multicenter, non-interventional study retrospectively analyzed patient charts. Methods: Data were recorded up until the first infusion of ocrelizumab (July 2018 to October 2021). Medical history, disease status, disease activity and treatments were assessed from 12 months before PPMS diagnosis until study start. Acute interventions, BSC parameters and rehabilitation measures from the past 27 months were assessed.
Results: The core analysis population (N = 462) had a mean age (range) of 57.4 (27-85) years and mean disease duration of 13.7 (0.3-55.2) years. The most frequently reported symptoms were muscle spasticity, bladder disorder, ataxia, gait disturbance and fatigue. The most commonly used treatment was physical/occupational therapy (66.5% of patients); 47.2% received off-label treatment with corticosteroids/disease-modifying therapies. BSC measures for many symptoms were strikingly rare - especially for fatigue and cognitive impairment.
Conclusion: This analysis uncovers severe BSC deficits for many debilitating PPMS symptoms. There is still a large unmet need for innovative multidisciplinary care concepts and improvements in neurological primary and secondary care.
