简要总结
This is a multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study followed by active treatment, to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of two doses of oral administration of laquinimod in participants with RRMS. The study has 2 periods: Period 1, the double-blind, placebo-controlled period (up to 24 months) and Period 2, the active treatment period (24 months).

结局指标
主要结局
Placebo-Controlled Phase: Time to Confirmed Disease Progression (CDP) Confirmed After At Least 3 Months (Number of Participants With CDP After At Least 3 Months)
时间窗: Baseline to Month 24
Time to CDP was defined as the time to a sustained increase in Kurtzke's Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score of at least 1 point if baseline EDSS score was less than or equal to 5.0, or at least 0.5 point if the baseline EDSS score was 5.5, over a period of at least three months. EDSS assesses disability in 8 functional systems with an overall score ranging from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to multiple sclerosis \[MS\]). Data is presented as distribution of CDP (number of participants with CDP) sustained for 3 months.
