Prior/Concomitant Therapy:
-
Treatment with any approved MS treatment at Screening. Participants may become eligible after completion of a washout period prior to acquiring any screening laboratory tests but should not be withdrawn from therapies for the sole purpose of meeting eligibility for the trial
-
Previous treatment with RO7121932, alemtuzumab, cladribine, mitoxantrone, cyclophosphamide, total body irradiation, bone marrow transplantation, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. For the USA only, previous treatment with daclizumab
-
Previous treatment with anti-CD20 B-cell-depleting therapies (e.g., rituximab, ocrelizumab, or ofatumumab)
- <12 months prior to acquiring any screening laboratory tests,
- ≥12 months prior to acquiring any screening laboratory tests, if B-cells are outside the normal range, or not back to individual baseline ± 20% (if data are available),
- If discontinuation of a prior B-cell depletion therapy was motivated by safety reasons
-
Current or prior treatment with natalizumab (if <24 months prior to acquiring any screening laboratory tests)
Prior/Concurrent Clinical Study Experience:
- Participation in an investigational drug medicinal product or medical device study within 30 days before Screening or within five times the pharmacodynamic (PD) or pharmacokinetic (PK) half-life (if known), whichever is longer
Diagnostic Assessments:
- Positive result on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV1) and HIV2, hepatitis C, or hepatitis B
- Participants with suicidal ideation or behavior within 6 months prior to Screening or participants who, in the Investigator's judgment, pose a suicidal or homicidal risk

Group Intervention Description Part 1: Single Ascending Dose (SAD) IV: RO7121932- Dose Escalation Cohorts 1 to 6 and Later Cohorts RO7121932 IV - SAD Participants will receive a single IV dose of RO7121932 on treatment Day 1. The planned starting dose of RO7121932 is 7 milligrams (mg) and will be escalated up to 2000 mg. The maximum dose will not exceed 4000 mg. Doses may be repeated, adjusted downwards, or intermediate doses may be investigated based on emerging data. Part 2: SAD SC: RO7121932- Dose Escalation Cohorts 1 to 2 RO7121932 SC - SAD Participants will receive a single SC dose of RO7121932 on treatment Day 1. The planned starting dose of RO7121932 is 70 mg and will be escalated up to 200 mg. Doses may be repeated, adjusted downwards, or intermediate doses may be investigated based on emerging data. Part 3: Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) SC: RO7121932- Dose Escalation Cohorts 1 to 3 RO7121932 - MAD Participants will receive multiple SC doses of RO7121932, once weekly on treatment Day 1 through Day 22. The planned starting dose of RO7121932 is 70 mg and will be escalated up to 700 mg. Doses may be repeated, adjusted downwards, or intermediate doses may be investigated based on emerging data.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Part 1, Part 2 and 3: Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) with Severity of AEs Measured According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5 (NCI CTCAE v5) Day 1 to Day 169 for part 1 and part 2; Day 1 to Day 197 for part 3 Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3: Percentage of Participants With Abnormal Laboratory Findings Day 1 to Day 169 for part 1 and part 2; Day 1 to Day 197 for part 3 Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3: Percentage of Participants With Abnormal Vital Signs and Electrocardiogram (ECG) Parameters Day 1 to Day 169 for part 1 and part 2; Day 1 to Day 197 for part 3 Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3: Change From Baseline in Suicide Risk as Assessed Using the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) Day 1 to Day 169 for part 1 and part 2; Day 1 to Day 197 for part 3 The C-SSRS is an interview-based instrument used to assess baseline incidence of suicidal ideation and behavior. The assessment includes "yes" or "no" responses for 5 questions, each related to suicidal ideation (wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods, active suicidal ideation with some intent, active suicidal ideation with specific plan) and suicidal behavior (preparatory acts or behavior, aborted attempt, interrupted attempt, actual attempt, suicide). Numeric ratings are provided for severity of ideation (if present), from 0 to 5. A score of 0 is assigned if no suicide risk is present. A score of 1 or higher indicates suicidal ideation or behavior, with 5 being the most severe.
Part 2 and Part 3: Percentage of Participants with Local Pain at the Site of Injection Assessed Using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Day 1, 2, 5, 8 for part 2; Day 1, 2, 5, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36 for part 3 VAS is a 100 millimetre (mm) horizontal visual analog scale with values 0 to 100 mm to indicate pain. The following cutpoints on the pain VAS will be considered in the interpretation of the pain data: no pain (0-4 mm), mild pain (5-44 mm), moderate pain (45-74 mm), and severe pain (75-100 mm). A higher score indicates greater pain intensity.
Part 2 and Part 3: Percentage of Participants with Local Injection Site Reaction Using Local Injection-site Symptom Assessment (LISSA) Day 1,2, 5, 8 for part 2; Day 1, 2, 5, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36 for part 3 LISSA form will be used to assess the participant's injection site for the following categories of reactions: Burning, Itching, Bruising, Erythema (redness), Hive formation, Induration, Swelling, Ecchymosis, Sensitivity, Papules, Stinging, Blister, Cold sensation, and Other. These reactions will be described using the following scale: Unable to assess, less than a dime (\<18 mm/\<0.7 inches), a dime (18 mm/0.7 inches), a nickel (21 mm/0.8 inches), a quarter (24 mm/1 inch), a half dollar (31 mm/1.2 inches), larger than a half dollar (\>31 mm/\>1.2 inches). A higher score indicate high injection site reactions.
