Description

It is not know whether people receiving ocrelizumab for MS mount adequate immune responses to COVID-19 vaccine. The study is designed to investigate B-cell and T-cell responses to COVID-19 vaccination in patients treated with Ocrevus. 

There are 5 visits for this study. All patients will have their blood drawn prior to their first vaccination, and 4 times following vaccination over the course of 1 year. The immune responses will be analyzed in two research labs at NYU Grossman School of Medicine. We invite people with MS, who have not yet received their COVID vaccination and did not have COVID-19 to participate in this study. More details about the study can be found at clinicaltrias.gov [NCT04843774].
