The impact of aging was also discussed, along with new developments related to symptomatic treatments, physical exercise, fatigue, and sleep disorders. Emphasis was placed on addressing ongoing challenges in measuring therapeutic failure and managing treatments for secondary progressive MS. Additionally, data from registries and real-world studies were presented, including new analyses on cladribine, highlighting the need to collect safety information.
