THIS YEAR’S European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) congress was the 38th, and the first ever hybrid congress organised by ECTRIMS. The congress, which is the world’s largest for research into the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment in multiple sclerosis (MS) and related neurological disorders, is held in collaboration with Rehabilitation in Multiple Sclerosis (RIMS).

PROGRESSIVE multiple sclerosis (MS) posed an important topic of discussion at the 38th European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) Congress, held in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, between 26th–28th October 2022. Throughout the engaging session on progressive MS, chaired by Kathy Smith, National Multiple Sclerosis Society, New York, USA, and Jan Meilof, University of Groningen, the Netherlands, key learning and focus points to consider for the future of clinical trials and treatments were summarised and spotlighted.

The current treatments for children with multiple sclerosis (MS) was a theme explored in a session at this year’s conference of the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS), which took place on the 26th–28th October 2022. The speakers shared their insights into the management and clinical consequences of MS in children, and discussed perspectives as to why immunomodulatory treatment is different in children with MS.
