Other Study Updates
The in-person Study Advisory Committee (SAC) meeting was held last week and we
want to thank all investigators and stakeholders who participated!
Ideas to improve recruitment were shared and we have begun to implement some of
them:
◦ NMSS is sending another trial alert email to new states with activated sites on 3/25/19.
◦ We have added a map to our trial website showing cities/states with participating sites.
◦ We are exploring with the CMSC an outreach effort aimed at private practice neurologists
  and clinicians who may refer to the trial (utilizing our IRB approved provider flyer).
◦ Stay tuned for additional ideas! We welcome your suggestions and are here to help you!

    Call for Your Contributions
Thank you for helping TREAT-MS know more about your recruitment methods..
 Send an email with your best tip or suggestion! For instance, have you used
                    MyChart of Cohort ID for screening?
• Huge challenge to reflect in a brochure what
                  motivates people
The Limits Of
  Materials     • Content is limited in what can be said and
                  approved

                • The right opportunity or not?   That’s what
                                                    we need
