- Safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of rHIgM22 in patients with MS immediately following a relapse as measured by the number of patients with Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 180 days ]Assessed by review of the AEs, including Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), clinical symptoms and signs, clinical laboratory tests and Electrocardiogram (ECGs).
- Maximum measured plasma concentration (Cmax) of single ascending doses of rHIgM22 [ Time Frame: Pre-dose (day 1), specified time points up to 48 hours post treatment ]
- Time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax) of single ascending doses of rHIgM22 [ Time Frame: Pre-dose (day 1), specified time points up to 48 hours post treatment ]
- Half-life (T1/2) of single ascending doses of rHIgM22 [ Time Frame: Pre-dose (day 1), specified time points up to 48 hours post treatment ]
- Area under the concentration curve from time 0 to the concentration at last time point (AUC0-last) of single ascending doses of rHIgM22 [ Time Frame: Pre-dose (day 1), specified time points up to 48 hours post treatment ]
- Immunogenicity profile of single ascending doses of rHIgM22 [ Time Frame: Specified time points up to 180 days post treatment ]Blood samples will be collected from subjects post treatment for assessment to detect the presence of anti-drug antibodies and neutralizing antibodies.
- The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) [ Time Frame: Screening, specified time points up to 180 days post treatment ]
