- Sex
- All
- Target Recruitment
- 680
- Age 18-55 years
- Have a definite diagnosis of RRMS, confirmed as per the revised
McDonald 2010 criteria
- Have a length of disease duration, from first symptom, of < 10 years. If
the date of first symptom is unknown, then the diagnosis of RRMS should
be of = 5 years
- Have received no more than two prior disease modifying treatments
(DMTs), and the discontinuation of the most recent DMT was due to lack
of efficacy
- Suboptimal disease control while on a DMT
- EDSS of 0.0 to 4.0, inclusive, at screening
- For women of childbearing potential: agreement to use an acceptable
birth control method during the treatment period and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study drug
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 750
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
- Secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) or history of primary
progressive or progressive relapsing MS
- Inability to complete an MRI
- Known presence of other neurological disorders
Exclusions Related to General Health
- Any concomitant disease that may require chronic treatment with
systemic corticosteroids or immunosuppressants during the course of
the study
- History or currently active primary or secondary immunodeficiency
- History of severe allergic or anaphylactic reactions to humanized or
murine monoclonal antibodies
- History of opportunistic infections
- History or known presence of recurrent or chronic infection
- History of malignancy
- Congestive heart failure
- Known active bacterial, viral, fungal, mycobacterial infection or other
infection, excluding fungal infection of nail beds
Exclusions Related to Medications
- Receipt of a live vaccine or attenuated live vaccine within 6 weeks prior
to the baseline visit
- Treatment with any investigational agent within 24 weeks of screening
(Visit 1) or five half-lives of the investigational drug (whichever is
longer) or treatment with any experimental procedures for MS
- Treatment with fampridine/dalfamipridine (Fampyra®)/Ampyra®)
unless on stable dose for >= 30 days prior to screening. Wherever
possible, patients should remain on stable doses throughout the 96-
week treatment period.
- Contraindications to or intolerance of oral or IV corticosteroids,
according to the country label, including a) Psychosis not yet controlled
by a treatment; b) Hypersensitivity to any of the constituents
- Previous treatment with B-cell targeted therapies (i.e., rituximab,
ocrelizumab, atacicept, belimumab, or ofatumumab)
- Systemic corticosteroid therapy within 4 weeks prior to screening
- Any previous treatment with alemtuzumab
(Campath/Mabcampath/Lemtrada), cladribine, mitoxantrone,
daclizumab, laquinimod, total body irradiation, or bone marrow
transplantation
- Treatment with cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, mycophenolate
mofetil, cyclosporine or methotrexate
- Treatment with fampridine/dalfamipridine (Fampyra®)/Ampyra®)
unless on stable dose for >= 30 days prior to screening. Wherever
possible, patients should remain on stable doses throughout the 96-
week treatment period.
- Previous treatment with natalizumab unless natalizumab was
discontinued because of persistent anti-natalizumab antibodies
- Treatment with IV immunoglobulin (Ig) within 12 weeks prior to
baseline
- Any previous treatment with an investigational MS DMT not yet
approved at time of screening
Exclusions Related to Laboratory Findings
- Positive serum ß human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) measured at
screening
- Positive screening tests for hepatitis B (hepatitis B surface antigen
[HBsAg] positive, or positive hepatitis B core antibody [total HBcAb]
confirmed by a positive viral DNA polymerase chain reaction [PCR]) or
hepatitis C (HepCAb)
- Lymphocyte count below lower limit of normal (LLN)
- CD4 count<250/mcL
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/ serum glutamic oxaloacetic
transaminase (SGOT) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) /serum
glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT)=> 3.0 × the upper limit of normal
(ULN)
- Platelet count <100,000/µL (<100 × 109/L)
- Absolute neutrophil count <1.0 × 103/mcL
