Switching DMT should therefore be considered in cases of breakthrough disease or an inadequate response to therapy\, intolerability or specific side effects\, adverse events\, family planning\, compliance issues\, psychosocial reasons\, and economic reasons.The aging MS population also raises the need for de-escalation of DMT\, emphasizing the importance of the risks and benefits of such a switch which should be considered on a case-by-case basis. Real-life data can contribute with evidence on predictors of treatment response\, guide the selection of the most appropriate DMT for individual patients\, and inform treatment decisions when switching DMTs.Vincent Van PeschImmunology and the mechanisms of immune system dysfunctionImmunology is rapidly changing\, increasingly complex and interdisciplinary discipline and has entered the field of neurology for several diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS)\, neuromyelitis optica\, myasthenia gravis or other less common disorders. This workshop will cover basic immunology concepts\, including the different types of immune cells and their function\, as well as the mechanisms of immune system activation and regulation. It will also provide the basis for understanding the role of immune cells and cytokines in the development of MS and the mechanisms of tissue damage\, as well as the mode of action of disease-modifying therapies. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in interactive discussions and case-based learning activities\, allowing for a more in-depth understanding of the functioning of the immune system and its relevance for MS and the treatment of immune-mediated neurological disorders.\n\n\nSpeakerKeynote AbstractNiels HellingsEpstein Barr Virus and Multiple Sclerosis: Old Wine in New Bottles?Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) and its possible involvement in the etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) has regained a lot of attention lately. But did we really learn something new or do recent reports merely confirm what has been known for many years? Did we get any further than the paradigms which have been textbook knowledge for some time?In my talk\, I will summarize the most important facts on EBV and MS and emphasize the elements that are still unknown and should be subject of future research to get any idea about the pathogenicity of this herpes virus in MS. I will touch upon the limitations of reported studies and conclude by discussing possible therapeutic approaches that target EBV and may be considered once causality can be definitely proven one day. Letizia LeocaniNew technologies in the neurological field (OCT\, evoked potentials\, remote monitoring\, AI): What can I use today? And what is coming?Today\, evoked potentials and OCT are routinely used to detect subclinical involvement of eloquent pathways\, to confirm relapses or to monitor demyelination\, remyelination and axonal loss in trials targeting remyelination and neuroprotection. On the other hand\, extensive research\, also on a large scale\, is being conducted to validate and promote the use of digital technologies for remote monitoring\, with the final aim to ease disease management and to allow to empower self-monitoring by people with MS. All these measures\, to be integrated in the large portfolio already available including biomarkers and neuroimaging\, will require computing power and novel processing techniques\, from statistical approaches to artificial intelligence.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakerBiographyMelinda Magyari is the director of The Danish Multiple Sclerosis Registry (link: www.dmsr.dk/) and a consultant neurologist at the Danish Multiple Sclerosis Center (COI).

SUMMARY:ParadigMS Master Class – 20th October 2022
DESCRIPTION:The Master Class aims to bring together health care practitioners participating both on site as well as online\, by offering a learning experience that can positively impact your clinical practice. Question and answer sessions and polls will be used to encourage participants to get involved and engage with the speakers and other participants. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDATE & LOCATION \n\n\n\nThursday 20th October 2022Hybrid event – on site (Health Avenue\, Ikaroslaan 57\, 1930 Zaventem) and online. \n\n\n\nSTORY-LINE \n\n\n\nMS prognostication in practice: today and future perspectives \n\n\n\nMS prognostication provides the neurologist with a comprehensive overview of each patient’s current and potential future disease status. It can be used to identify ‘red flags’ in the patient’s profile indicating the need for heightened vigilance and/or a more aggressive treatment approach. \n\n\n\nIn this one-hour masterclass\, MS neurologists present three related subjects. First\, a prognostication tool is presented that can be used by neurologists in clinical practice. Next\, cases are presented where high efficacy pharmacological treatment is used depending on demographic factors\, clinical manifestations\, MRI observations and biomarkers. We conclude the session with a view on the potential of virtual care and digital biomarkers to complement the available patient data for a neurologist. \n\n\n\nPROGRAMME \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSPEAKERS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHO’S INVITED \n\n\n\nNeurologists • Neurologists in training • Nurses • Researchers • Rehabilitation professionals • Medical professionals
