简要总结
This study will enroll about 66 participants who experienced a relapse of RRMS that steroids did not help. The doctor will put participants into a treatment group. Each person has an equal chance of being in either one of two groups (like flipping a coin). One group will receive a shot of study medicine (called Acthar Gel) under their skin every day for 14 days. The other group will receive a shot every day for 14 days, too, but there is no medicine in it (called placebo).

主要结局
Score on the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) at Baseline and Day 42
时间窗: Baseline, Day 42
The EDSS is a 10-point assessment of neurological impairment/disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, ranging from 0 (normal neurological examination) to 10 (death due to MS). EDSS is rated by a person who only collects outcome measures, and has no knowledge of the treatment received.
