About This Trial

The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1195 in participants with multiple sclerosis.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 2 trials evaluate whether a treatment actually works against Multiple Sclerosis and continue monitoring side effects. Phase 2 enrolls larger groups (typically 100–300 patients) and produces the first real efficacy signal. A successful Phase 2 readout is what unlocks the much larger Phase 3 confirmatory trials needed for FDA approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 180 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Multiple Sclerosis subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Medically stable as determined by Investigator's medical evaluation, which will include assessment of medical history, physical examination, laboratory testing, and review of any previously conducted cardiac monitoring. - Participants who are Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-seropositive at screening. - Participants diagnosed with relapsing multiple sclerosis, including those with a single clinical attack (that is, clinically isolated syndrome \[CIS\]), as well as participants diagnosed with radiologically isolated syndrome, within 24 months of Screening Visit (that is, early in their multiple sclerosis course) and in the opinion of the Investigator have been neurologically stable for at least 30 days prior to Visit 1/Day 1. - A participant who could become pregnant is eligible to participate if they are not pregnant or breast/chest feeding and using a highly effective contraceptive method. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Acutely ill or febrile (temperature ≥38.0 degrees Celsius (℃) \[100.4 Fahrenheit °F\]) within 72 hours prior to or at screening or Day 1. - History of a diagnosis or condition that, in the judgment of the Investigator, is clinically unstable or may affect participant safety, assessment of study endpoints, assessment of immune response, or adherence to study procedures. - Received or plans to receive any non-study vaccine (including authorized or approved vaccines for the prevention of coronavirus disease 2019 \[COVID-19\] regardless of vaccine type) within 28 days before or after any study injection, or within 14 days before or after any study injection for the influenza vaccine. - Any medical, psychiatric, or occupational condition, including reported history of drug or alcohol abuse, that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might pose additional risk due to participation in the study or could interfere with the interpretation of study results. ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

How to Talk to Your Doctor About This Trial

Bring the printable summary of this trial — including the NCT ID (NCT06735248), the sponsor (ModernaTX, Inc.), and the key eligibility criteria — to your next appointment. Your doctor can review the inclusion and exclusion criteria against your medical history, lab values, and current treatments to assess whether you are likely to qualify. They can also help you weigh whether trial participation makes sense alongside your existing care plan.

Useful questions to walk through together: What does the trial protocol require beyond standard care? How long is the active treatment phase, and how long is follow-up? Are there study visits at sites I can reach? Who pays for the trial-specific procedures, and who pays for standard-of-care portions? See our 25 questions to ask about clinical trials guide for a more complete checklist.
