What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product. A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence or effect that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability / incapacity, is a congenital anomaly / birth defect or is medically important due to other reasons than the above mentioned criteria.

    Time frame: First dose of study drug in Study 303 to within 180 days of last dose (up to approximately 5.5 years)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Annualized Relapse Rate (ARR) in the 205MS303 Treatment Period

    Relapses are defined as new or recurrent neurological symptoms not associated with fever or infection, lasting at least 24 hours, and accompanied by new objective neurological findings upon examination by the Study Neurologist. The unadjusted ARR was calculated by tabulating the total number of relapses experienced in the group divided by the number of days up to the end of study, and the ratio then multiplied by 365.25. Relapses that occurred after participants received alternative multiple sclerosis (MS) medications were excluded from the analyses. ARR was adjusted for relapse rate, IFN beta use, Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) (\<=2.5 vs \>2.5) and age (\<=35 vs \>35) prior to start of study treatment in 205MS301, calculated using the negative binomial model.

    Time frame: Up to 4.6 years in the 303 study

  2. ARR in the 205MS301-303 Combined Study Period and 205MS301 Treatment Period

    Relapses are defined as new or recurrent neurological symptoms not associated with fever or infection, lasting at least 24 hours, and accompanied by new objective neurological findings upon examination by the Study Neurologist.

Relapses that occurred after participants received alternative MS medications were excluded from the analyses. ARR was adjusted for relapse rate, IFN beta use, EDSS (\<=2.5 vs \>2.5) and age (\<=35 vs \>35) prior to start of study treatment in 301, calculated using the negative binomial model.

The EDSS measures the disability status of people with multiple sclerosis on a scale that ranges from 0 to 10. The range of main categories include (0) =normal neurologic exam; to (5) = ambulatory without aid or rest for 200 meters; disability severe enough to impair full daily activities; to (10) = death due to MS.

    The PASAT 3 assesses auditory information processing speed. A random series of numbers from 1 to 9, inclusive, are presented and the participant is instructed to consecutively add pairs of numbers so that each number is added to the one that immediately preceded it. In the 3- second PASAT, numbers are presented at a rate of 1 every 3 seconds. The total possible score is the number of correct responses from 0 to 60 (best). A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.

Outcome measures

PrimaryNumber of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product. A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence or effect that at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability / incapacity, is a congenital anomaly / birth defect or is medically important due to other reasons than the above mentioned criteria.

SecondaryAnnualized Relapse Rate (ARR) in the 205MS303 Treatment Period

Relapses are defined as new or recurrent neurological symptoms not associated with fever or infection, lasting at least 24 hours, and accompanied by new objective neurological findings upon examination by the Study Neurologist. The unadjusted ARR was calculated by tabulating the total number of relapses experienced in the group divided by the number of days up to the end of study, and the ratio then multiplied by 365.25. Relapses that occurred after participants received alternative multiple sclerosis (MS) medications were excluded from the analyses. ARR was adjusted for relapse rate, IFN beta use, Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) (\<=2.5 vs \>2.5) and age (\<=35 vs \>35) prior to start of study treatment in 205MS301, calculated using the negative binomial model.

The EDSS measures the disability status of people with multiple sclerosis on a scale that ranges from 0 to 10. The range of main categories include (0) =normal neurologic exam; to (5) = ambulatory without aid or rest for 200 meters; disability severe enough to impair full daily activities; to (10) = death due to MS. Higher scores indicate more disability.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) Score in the 205MS303 Treatment Period

The EDSS measures the disability status of people with multiple sclerosis as assessed by the Study Neurologist based on 8 functional systems that ranges from 0=normal neurologic exam; to 5=ambulatory without aid or rest for 200 meters; disability severe enough to impair full daily activities; to 10=death due to MS. Higher scores indicate more disability. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

The 29-item MSIS-29 is a disease specific participant-reported outcome measure that has been developed and validated to examine the physical (coordination and mobility) and psychological (mental) impact of MS from a participant's perspective; it measures 20 physical items and 9 psychological items. The results for each of the physical and psychological scores are transformed to a score of 0 to 100 (worse state of health). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Quality of Life as Assessed by the European Quality of Life, 5 Dimensions (EQ 5D) Health Scores in the 205MS303 Treatment Period

The EQ-5D is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 5 domains pertaining to specific health state profile : mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. The participants recorded their level of current health for each domain where: 1=no problems, 2=some problem and 3=severe problems. The health score is derived from the individual scores for each of the 5 domains transformed to a score of 0=worst health state to 1=perfect health state. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in 3-Second Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT 3) Score in the 205MS303 Treatment Period

The PASAT 3 assesses auditory information processing speed. A random series of numbers from 1 to 9, inclusive, are presented and the participant is instructed to consecutively add pairs of numbers so that each number is added to the one that immediately preceded it. In the 3- second PASAT, numbers are presented at a rate of 1 every 3 seconds. The total possible score is the number of correct responses from 0 to 60 (best). A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.
