Each participant will be asked to use the light box twice daily at home or at the workplace at preset hours during the day for a total of four weeks. Participants will be asked to record their fatigue on standard measurement scales before, during, and after the use of the light therapy box. The investigators anticipate a reduction in self-reported fatigue following the use of the light box therapy of a particular spectrum of light among people living with multiple sclerosis.', 'detailedDescription': 'Study Protocol:\n\nEligible participants will be consented and randomized 1:1 to (a) white LT (10,000 lux), or (b) dim red LT (\\<300 lux). Participants will be informed that this study will examine the effect of two different light spectra on fatigue. The following assessments will be administered by the study principal investigator at the baseline visit: (1) the Kurtzke Extended Disability Status Scale (EDSS), (2) FSS, (3) Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI), (4) Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), (5) Berlin questionnaire for obstructive sleep apnea, (6) Epworth Sleepiness Scale. A two-week sleep diary will be collected before enrollment in order to screen for significant behavioral insufficient sleep or circadian rhythm disorders. The light box used for LT is designed to stand on a desk or tabletop. It can be used in the home or office. The light is delivered at a downward angle to maximize the effectiveness. The box runs on 124 watts and contains full spectrum 5000k 10,000 lux bulbs. Bright light treatment requires at least 2,500 lux to be effective.\n\nData Collection:\n\nThe study period will include a two-week baseline period, a four-week treatment period, and a four-week follow up period. Throughout the study period, participants will record their fatigue using the Visual Analogue Fatigue Scale (VAFS) four times daily, starting after waking up, and every four hours thereafter. The VAFS is a simple, validated 10-point scale ranging from 1 to 10 in which participants can report their fatigue as a snapshot at that particular moment. Data collection will occur by participants in self-report fashion. A FSS score will be collected at enrollment as well as at the end of the four week treatment period and the end of the four week follow-up period. There will be three visits with a principal investigators (PI), including the baseline visit described above, a visit with the PI at the end of the treatment period in which participants will report a FSS and discuss their experiences with LT, and a third follow-up visit at the end of the four-week follow up period for a final FSS. At this last visit they will be queried on whether they believe the intervention had any effect on their fatigue and whether they believe the alternative therapy (white light or dim red light) would have been more or less beneficial. Additionally participants will be asked to keep a LT log in which they will record daily LT exposure and associated side effects.\n\nStatistical Analysis:\n\nThe primary outcome measure is the change in the average FSS after the four-week study period in the bright light "active" vs. dim light "control" groups. There are no reports on FSS in response to bright LT in pMS. Using the conventional values of α=0.05 and β=0.80 for 2-tailed tests of probability with equally sized groups: a difference in 10 points on FSS between groups requires 18 people per study arm; a difference in 8 points requires 28 people per group. If power is reduced to 70%, the sample sizes are 22 and 14 for 8-point and 10-point differences. First, the investigators will compare the mean change in FSS scores, from baseline to after completion of LT, in an intention to treat analysis. The secondary outcome measure will be a change in the global VAFS scores after light therapy in both groups. Frequencies will be used to describe baseline characteristics across treatment arms. X2 statistics or Fisher\'s exact test will be used to compare the differences between groups. VAFS will be evaluated using a mixed-effects model which accounts for correlation between repeated measurements. Participant logbooks will be used to generate summary statistics and graphically display fatigue patterns throughout the day. Logbooks will also qualitatively assess the safety and tolerability of LT.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '70 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Relapsing remitting Multiple Sclerosis based on the McDonald Criteria (2010)\n* Over 18 years old\n* Presence of fatigue defined as FSS over 36\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* A change in an anti-depressant up to 4 weeks prior to study screening\n* A change in fatigue medication regime or MS disease modifying therapy up to 4 weeks prior to study screening\n* Shift work\n* Use of photosensitizing medication\n* Presence of eye trauma or acute optic neuritis within the preceding 3 months\n* History of traumatic brain injury\n* Probable (untreated) sleep apnea based on Berlin questionnaire\n* Significant anemia\n* History of mania\n* MS relapse in the preceding four weeks\n* Current pregnancy\n* Known light sensitivity\n* Other complicating illness preventing study completion.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03060759', 'briefTitle': 'Light Therapy as Treatment for Fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Massachusetts General Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'Light Therapy as Treatment for Fatigue in Multiple Sclerosis', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2016P002696'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Light Therapy-Spectrum 1', 'description': "Light from 'active' spectrum", 'interventionNames': ['Device: Light Therapy box']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Light Therapy-Spectrum 2', 'description': "Light from 'placebo' spectrum", 'interventionNames': ['Device: Light Therapy box']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Light Therapy box', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'The light box used for LT (SunRay by The Sunbox Company, Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA) is approximately 15.5" tall x 23" wide x 3.25" deep and is designed to stand on a desk or tabletop.
