1.Male or female subjects, 18-65 years of age,
2.Documented history of SPMS. SPMS is defined as an MS patient who has been diagnosed with MS for at least 3 years, and in the 3 year period prior to enrolment must have documented progression of their pyramidal or cerebellar Kurtzke functional subscores (FSS) in the absence of acute relapses. (In the absence of documented FSS changes, clinical notes documenting changes consistent with these changes will be acceptable). The subject must also have experienced at least 1 acute relapse as part of their diagnosis of RRMS. Only one relapse prior to diagnosis of MS can be in accordance with the McDonald diagnostic criteria as long as cranial MRI findings consistent with the diagnosis of MS are also present.
3.Absence of relapse in the 3 months prior to baseline.
4.EDSS of 3 . 5 – 6 . 5.
5.Pyramidal or Cerebellar FSS = 3
6.A cohort of 100 HLA DR2/4 negative patients is required. Once enrollment to this cohort is complete, all further patients are required to be HLA DR2/4 positive.
7.Subject must be able and willing to give meaningful, written informed consent prior to participation in the trial, in accordance with regulatory requirements,
8.In the Investigator’s opinion, subjects must be reliable, compliant, and agree to cooperate with all trial evaluations.

1.Diagnosis of Primary Progressive MS.
2.Subjects have previously received MBP8298.
3.A recent history of malignancy, with the exclusion of basal cell carcinoma. All patients with a history of malignancy must be discussed, approved, and a waiver issued by the Sponsor’ Medical Monitor prior to randomization
4.Steroid therapy within 30 days prior to first study specific procedure, or any other treatment known to be used for putative or experimental MS treatment.
5.Therapy with ß-interferon, glatiramer acetate within 3 months or mitoxantrone, cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, azathioprine, or any other immuno-modulating (e.g. IVIG) or immunosuppressive drugs including recombinant or non-recombinant cytokines or plasma exchange within 6 months prior to performance of the first study-specific test, with the exception of corticosteroids or ACTH for relapse treatment.
6.Initiation or discontinuation of therapy with 4-AP or 3,4-DAP at any time during the study period.
7.History of anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions to glatiramer acetate.
8.Abnormal laboratory values at the Baseline Visit deemed by the Investigator to be clinically significant.
9.Known allergy to Gadolinium-DTPA.
10.Treatment at any time with Cladribine, total lymphoid irradiation, monoclonal antibody treatment e.g. anti-CD4, anti-CD52, anti-VLA4, Anti-CD20.
11.Treatment at any time with an altered peptide ligand.
12.Any conditions that could interfere with the performance of study specific procedures e.g. MRI.
13.Previous randomization to this study.
14.Known positivity for HIV, Hepatitis B, or Hepatitis C.
15.Participation in any other non-MS clinical trial within 30 days prior to performance of the first study specific test (the screening/baseline visit), or any investigational therapy in the past 6 months.
16.Females who are breast feeding, pregnant (pregnancy test at Screening), or not using a medically approved method of contraception regularly.
17.Known or suspected current or past alcohol or drug abuse (within the last year).
