    Abstract Purpose of review: This article provides an update on progressive forms of multiple sclerosis (MS), with a focus on pathogenic mechanisms, clinical features, imaging features, and recent therapeutic advances.
    Recent findings: Progressive forms of MS are identified by a history of progressive accrual of disability independent of relapse, but they share many biological, clinical, and MRI features with relapsing MS. Both relapses and new lesions can occur in the context of progressive MS, and establishing when the transition from relapsing to progressive MS occurs is often difficult. Several pathogenic mechanisms coexist in progressive MS. Targeting inflammation in both primary and secondary progressive MS appears to reduce the accumulation of disability.
    Summary: Progressive MS remains a diagnostic challenge, and the pathogenesis underlying progression is complex. Significant overlap in the biology and clinical and imaging features of progressive MS exists with relapsing forms of the disease. The use of disease-modifying and symptomatic treatments may improve the quality of life for patients with progressive MS.

    Abstract Introduction: Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, demyelinating, inflammatory, and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system that affects over 2 million people worldwide. Considerable advances have been made in the availability of disease modifying therapies for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis since their introduction in the 1990s. This has led to debate regarding the optimal first-line treatment approach: a strategy of escalation versus early highly effective treatment.
    Areas covered: This review defines the strategies of escalation and early highly effective treatment, outlines the pros and cons of each, and provides an analysis of both the current literature and expected future directions of the field.
    Expert opinion: There is growing support for using early highly effective treatment as the initial therapeutic approach in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. However, much of this support stems from observational real-world studies that use historic data and lack safety outcomes or randomized control trials that compare individual high versus low-moderate efficacy therapies, instead of the approaches themselves. Randomized control trials (DELIVER-MS, TREAT-MS) are needed to systemically and prospectively compare contemporary escalation versus early highly effective treatment approaches.

    Abstract Background: The diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) relies heavily on neuroimaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and exclusion of mimics. This can be a challenging task due to radiological overlap in several disorders and may require ancillary testing or longitudinal follow up. One of the most common radiological MS mimickers is non-specific white matter disease (NSWMD). We aimed to develop and evaluate models leveraging machine learning algorithms to help distinguish MS and NSWMD.
    Methods: All adult patients who underwent MRI brain using a demyelinating protocol with available electronic medical records between 2015 and 2019 at Cleveland Clinic affiliated facilities were included. Diagnosis of MS and NSWMD were assessed from clinical documentation. Those with a diagnosis of MS and NSWMD were matched using total T2 lesion volume (T2LV) and used to train models with logistic regression and convolutional neural networks (CNN). Performance metrices were reported for each model.
    Results: A total of 250 NSWMD MRI scans were identified, and 250 unique MS MRI scans were matched on T2LV. Cross validated logistic regression model was able to use 20 variables (including spinal cord area, regional volumes, and fractions) to predict MS compared to NSWMD with 68.0% accuracy while the CNN model was able to classify MS compared to NSWMD in two independent validation and testing cohorts with 77% and 78% accuracy on average.
    Conclusion: Automated methods can be used to differentiate MS compared to NSWMD. These methods can be used to supplement currently available diagnostic tools for patients being evaluated for MS.

    Abstract Multiple sclerosis (MS) produces demyelination and degeneration in both gray and white matter. Both cortical and deep gray matter injury is observed during the course of MS. Among deep gray matter structures, the thalamus has received special attention, as it undergoes volume loss in different MS subtypes and is involved in the earliest form of the disease, radiologically isolated syndrome. The thalamus plays an important role as an information relay center, and involvement of the thalamus in MS has been associated with a variety of clinical manifestations in MS, including fatigue, movement disorders, pain, and cognitive impairment (CI). Similar to thalamic volume loss, CI is seen from the earliest stages of MS and is potentially one of the most debilitating manifestations of the disease. The thalamus, particularly the dorsomedial nucleus as part of the basolateral limbic circuit and anterior thalamic nuclei through connections with the prefrontal cortex, has been shown to be involved in CI. Specifically, several cognitive performance measures such as processing speed and memory correlate with thalamic volume. Thalamic atrophy is one of the most important predictors of CI in MS, and both thalamic volume, diffusion tensor imaging measures, and functional activation correlate with the degree of CI in MS. Although the exact mechanism of thalamic atrophy is not well-understood, it is hypothesized to be secondary to degeneration following white matter injury resulting in secondary neurodegeneration and neuronal loss. The thalamus may represent an ideal biomarker for studies aiming to test neuroprotective or restorative therapies aimed at cognition.

    Abstract Despite the success of disease-modifying treatments in relapsing multiple sclerosis, for many individuals living with multiple sclerosis, progressive disability continues to accrue. How to interrupt the complex pathological processes underlying progression remains a daunting and ongoing challenge. Since 2014, several immunomodulatory approaches that have modest but clinically meaningful effects have been approved for the management of progressive multiple sclerosis, primarily for people who have active inflammatory disease. The approval of these drugs required large phase 3 trials that were sufficiently powered to detect meaningful effects on disability. New classes of drug, such as Bruton tyrosine-kinase inhibitors, are coming to the end of their trial stages, several candidate neuroprotective compounds have been successful in phase 2 trials, and innovative approaches to remyelination are now also being explored in clinical trials. Work continues to define intermediate outcomes that can provide results in phase 2 trials more quickly than disability measures, and more efficient trial designs, such as multi-arm multi-stage and futility approaches, are increasingly being used. Collaborations between patient organisations, pharmaceutical companies, and academic researchers will be crucial to ensure that future trials maintain this momentum and generate results that are relevant for people living with progressive multiple sclerosis.
