入选标准
- •Subject with a relapsing form of MS; diagnosis of MS is in accordance with the McDonald criteria
- •Subject currently taking Rebif 44mcg tiw, and has been on this treatment for at least 6 months (24 weeks) prior to study enrollment
- •Subject currently using Rebiject II and 29 gauge needle
- •Subject is between 18 and 60 years old inclusive
- •Subject is able to read and understand English
- •Subject is willing to follow study procedures
- •Subject has given written informed consent and signed HIPAA
- •Female subjects must not be either pregnant or breast-feeding and must lack childbearing potential, as defined by either: i) Being post-menopausal or surgically sterile, or ii) Using a hormonal contraceptive, intra-uterine device, diaphragm with spermicide, or condom with spermicide, for the duration of the study. (Confirmation required within 30 days prior to start of the study)
排除标准
- •Use of any other injectable medications on a regular basis during the week prior to the screening period or during the screening or treatment periods. Receiving a single injection for treatment or prophylaxis of a condition unrelated to the subject's multiple sclerosis or the subject's Rebif® therapy (e.g., receiving a influenza or pneumococcus vaccination) is acceptable
- •Subject receiving MS therapy in addition (i.e., combination therapy) to Rebif® within 3 months prior to study enrollment or at any time during study protocol.
- •Subjects who have previously been on Rebif New Formulation (RNF).
- •Subject with progressive forms of Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
- •Subject with history of any chronic pain syndrome.
- •Subject has any other disease apart from MS that could better explain the subjects signs and symptoms.
- •Subject has complete transverse myelitis or bilateral optic neuritis.
- •Subjects that use any investigational drug or experimental procedure within 12 weeks of visit
- •Subject received oral or systemic corticosteroids or ACTH within 30 days of visit 1 (prior to enrollment).
- •Subject has inadequate liver function, defined by a total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 times the upper limit of the normal values.
- •Subject has inadequate bone marrow reserve, defined as a white blood cell count less than 0.5 x lower limit of normal.
- •Subject suffers from other current autoimmune disease.
- •Subject suffers from major medical or psychiatric illness that in the opinion of the investigator creates undue risk to the subject or could affect compliance with the study protocol
- •Subject is pregnant or attempting to conceive
- •Visual or physical impairment that precludes completion of diaries and questionnaires.

结局指标
主要结局
Percent Change in Global Side Effects (GSE) on Multiple Sclerosis Treatment Concerns Quesionnaire (MSTCQ)
时间窗: % change from Baseline to Week 12
The MSTCQ Global Side Effect domain assesses the degree of satisfaction on global side effect questions 9, 10 \& 11 on a scale from 3 (not at all satisfied) to 15 (extremely satisfied). Percent change calculated as 100% \* (score at week 12 - score at baseline) / score at baseline.
次要结局
- Total Score for Global Side Effects on Multiple Sclerosis Treatment Concerns Questionnaire (MSTCQ)(Baseline and Week 12)
- Change in Score From Baseline to Week 12 for All Domains Other Than Global Side Effects on Multiple Sclerosis Treatment Concerns Questionnaire (MSTCQ)(Baseline to Week 12)
- Total Score on Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ): Change in Baseline to Wk 12(Baseline to Week 12)
- Tolerability in Pain Using Visual Analog Scale (VAS)(Baseline to Week 12)
- Tolerability - Redness at Injection Site(Baseline to Week 12 (LOCF))
