  • 3. Patients who participated in any designated global fingolimod MS trial other than phase II/III (e.g. CFTY720D2316, CFTY720D2320, etc.) and are less than 180 days beyond the time of local approval and general reimbursement.
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients fulfilling any of the following criteria are not eligible for inclusion in this study:
  • 1. Premature permanent discontinuation from any fingolimod study due to:
  • a. An adverse event or serious adverse event or laboratory abnormality.
  • b. Conditions leading to permanent study drug discontinuation.
  • Patients who temporarily or permanently discontinued from any fingolimod study because of pregnancy can be re-enrolled.
  • 2. Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test (> 5 mIU/ml).
  • 3. Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, UNLESS they are using highly effective contraception during the study and for 2 months after stopping treatment. ‘Highly effective contraception’defined as contraception which results in less than 1% unwanted pregnancies when used properly according to the label.
  • Women are considered post-menopausal and not of child-bearing potential if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate, history of vasomotor symptoms) or have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy) or tubal ligation at least six weeks prior to baseline. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered not of child bearing potential.
  • 4. Chronic disease of the immune system other than MS which may require immunosuppressive treatment.
  • 5. Severe active infection or active chronic infection.
  • 6. Previous treatment with cladribine, cyclophosphamide or mitoxantrone.
  • 7. Treatment with monoclonal antibodies (including Natalizumab) in the past 3 months.
  • 8. Uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c>9%).
  • 9. Macular edema at Baseline.
  • 10. Any medically unstable condition that may interfere with the patient’s ability to cooperate and comply with the study procedures, as assessed by the treating physician.
  • 11. Any of the following cardiovascular conditions:
  • a. myocardial infarction within the past 6 months prior to enrollment or current unstable ischemic heart disease;
  • b. cardiac failure at time of Screening (Class III & IV, according to New York Heart Association Classification) or any severe cardiac disease as determined by the investigator;
  • c. patients receiving current treatment with Class Ia and III antiarrhythmic drugs (e.g., quinidine, disopyramide, amiodarone, bretylium, sotalol, ibulitide, azimilide, dofelitide, ajmaline, procainamide);
  • d. second-degree AV block Type II or third-degree AV block or corrected QTc inverval >450 msec in males or 470 msec in females;
  • e. sick sinus syndrome or sino-atrial heart block;
  • f. uncontrolled hypertension despite prescribed medications.
  • 12. Any of the following pulmonary conditions during the previous fingolimod study or observed at enrollment visit:
