Serum biomarker gMS-Classifier2: predicting conversion to clinically definite multiple sclerosis.
<h4>Background</h4>Anti-glycan antibodies can be found in autoimmune diseases. IgM against glycan P63 was identified in clinically isolated syndromes (CIS) and included in gMS-Classifier2, an algorithm designed with the aim of identifying patients at risk of a second demyelinating attack...

The primary endpoint was time to conversion to CDMS at two years, the factor tested was gMS-Classifier2 status (positive/negative) or units; other exploratory time points were 5 years and total time of follow-up.<h4>Results</h4>Seventy-five patients (30.1%) were gMS-Classifier2 positive.
