简要总结
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether 150 mg enteric-coated aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid [ASA]) taken twice a day (BID) with dimethyl fumarate (DMF) administration or 75 mg enteric-coated ASA taken once daily in the morning (QAM) with DMF administration reduces the incidence and/or severity of flushing events in subjects with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) compared with ASA-placebo administered with DMF in the clinical practice setting.
Secondary objectives of this study are: to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DMF administered with and without enteric-coated ASA in the clinical practice setting; to evaluate the impact of DMF administration on quality of life as measured by the Short Form 36 (SF-36®) and European Quality of Life - 5 Dimensions - 5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaires.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Participants Reporting Overall Flushing Events During the First 4 Weeks of Treatment, as Assessed by the Modified Global Flushing Severity Scale (MGFSS)
时间窗: Day 2 to Week 4
Participant-reported flushing events during the first 4 weeks treatment, recorded on the hand-held participant reporting device (eDiary) as assessed by MGFSS. The MGFSS measures the side effects related to flushing during the past 24 hours. Flushing means redness, warmth, tingling or itching of the skin. Each question is rated on a scale from 0 (no flushing side effects) to 10 (extreme flushing side effects). Day 1 data are not included in the analysis because MGFSS question refers to last 24 hours flushing score.
Percentage of Participants Reporting Overall Flushing Events During the First 4 Weeks of Treatment, as Assessed by the Modified Flushing Severity Scale (MFSS)
时间窗: Day 1 to Week 4
Participant-reported flushing events during the first 4 weeks of treatment recorded on the eDiary as assessed by MFSS. MFSS questionnaire measures the side effects related to flushing following drug administration. Flushing means redness, warmth, tingling or itching of the skin. This questionnaire relates only to the period of time since the investigational drug was administered and was to be completed within 10 hours of taking the study drug (2 times/day). Each question is rated on a scale from 0 (no flushing side effects) to 10 (extreme flushing side effects).
Worst Severity Scores of Overall Flushing During the First 4 Weeks of Treatment, as Assessed by MGFSS
时间窗: Day 2 to Week 4
Worst severity of participant-reported flushing events during the first 4 weeks of treatment recorded on the eDiary as assessed by MGFSS. The MGFSS measures the side effects related to flushing during the past 24 hours. Flushing means redness, warmth, tingling or itching of the skin. Each question is rated on a scale from 0 (no flushing side effects) to 10 (extreme flushing side effects). Day 1 data are not included in the analysis because MGFSS question refers to last 24 hours flushing score.
