Trial Outcomes & Findings for Lipoic Acid for Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (MS) (NCT NCT03161028)
NCT ID: NCT03161028
Last Updated: 2025-03-03
Results Overview
T25FW was transformed to walking speed by dividing 25 feet by the completion time in seconds (ft/sec). The change in walking speed across 24 months was compared between treatment groups using a mixed models analysis.
