Efficacy and safety of disease-modifying therapies in pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis: A systematic review of clinical trials and observational studies
Objective
This study aimed to review the efficacy and safety profile of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) in patients with relapsing pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (POMS).
Methods
A systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Published randomized controlled trials (RCTs), nonrandomized studies with a control group, large single-arm studies, and ongoing (unpublished) studies investigating the use of approved and unapproved DMTs in POMS were included. Eligible published studies were identified in MEDLINE (via PubMed), EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library, and unpublished studies were identified in a clinical trials registry (www.clinicaltrials.gov).
Results
A total of 13 published studies were included in the systematic review: 4 RCTs, 3 observational studies with a control group, and 6 large single-arm studies. The following DMTs for the treatment of POMS were evaluated in the included studies: interferon beta-1a, interferon beta-1b, teriflunomide, dimethyl fumarate, fingolimod, natalizumab, glatiramer acetate, and ocrelizumab. All DMTs were shown to be effective in reducing relapse rates, preventing disability progression, and reducing disease activity in MRI in patients with POMS. DMTs that are considered highly effective in adults with multiple sclerosis (natalizumab, fingolimod) were also shown to be more effective than interferon beta-1a in POMS. A total of 9 ongoing (unpublished) studies were identified, including 5 RCTs. The following drugs were evaluated: ozanimod, fingolimod, peginterferon beta-1a, ocrelizumab, ofatumumab, siponimod, alemtuzumab, and natalizumab.
Conclusion
The number of DMTs approved for the treatment of POMS is limited, and some of the available DMTs are used off-label. The available evidence from published studies of varying reliability supports the efficacy of DMTs in POMS. However, well-designed, long-term RCTs in the pediatric population are needed. The results of ongoing studies may fill the existing gap in clinical evidence, possibly leading to the approval of more highly effective DMTs for patients with POMS.
期刊介绍:
Multiple Sclerosis is an area of ever expanding research and escalating publications. Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders is a wide ranging international journal supported by key researchers from all neuroscience domains that focus on MS and associated disease of the central nervous system. The primary aim of this new journal is the rapid publication of high quality original research in the field. Important secondary aims will be timely updates and editorials on important scientific and clinical care advances, controversies in the field, and invited opinion articles from current thought leaders on topical issues. One section of the journal will focus on teaching, written to enhance the practice of community and academic neurologists involved in the care of MS patients. Summaries of key articles written for a lay audience will be provided as an on-line resource.
A team of four chief editors is supported by leading section editors who will commission and appraise original and review articles concerning: clinical neurology, neuroimaging, neuropathology, neuroepidemiology, therapeutics, genetics / transcriptomics, experimental models, neuroimmunology, biomarkers, neuropsychology, neurorehabilitation, measurement scales, teaching, neuroethics and lay communication.
