Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54 Questionnaire (MSQoL-54) Physical Health Composite Summary and Mental Health Composite Summary Scores at Month 24Baseline, Month 24

The MSQOL-54 was a multidimensional health-related QOL measure that combines both generic and MS-specific items into a single instrument. This 54-item instrument generates 12 sub-scales along with two summary scores, and two additional single-item measures. Sub-scales are: physical function, role limitations-physical, role limitations-emotional, pain, emotional well-being, energy, health perceptions, social function, cognitive function, health distress, overall quality of life, and sexual function. The two summary scores physical health and mental health are derived from a weighted combination of scale scores. Each composite summary score has a range from 0-100 where higher scores indicate better QOL. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Treatment Global Satisfaction Determined by Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire Medication Version 1.4 (TSQM v1.4) Scale at Month 6At Month 6

TSQM version 1.4 was a global satisfaction scale used to assess the overall level of participant's satisfaction or dissatisfaction with their medications. It comprises of 14 items assessing the following 4 domains: effectiveness (questions: 1-3), side effects (questions: 4-8), convenience (questions: 9-11), global satisfaction (questions:12-14). Global Satisfaction- Question 12 scored as 1 (not at all confident) to 5 (extremely confident); question 13 scored as 1 (not at all certain) to 5 (extremely certain); and question 14 scored as 1 (extremely dissatisfied) to 7 (extremely satisfied). The scores of the domain were added together and an algorithm was used to create a score of 0 to 100. Higher scores indicated greater satisfaction.
