Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of participants who had one or more adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  2. Annual Relapse Rate (ARR) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
    The annual relapse rate (ARR) after the start of treatment will be calculated throughout study.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Changes in the number of lesions from brain MRI findings [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  2. Changes in functional evaluation scores (Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS]) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
    EDSS is a method of quantifying disability in multiple sclerosis and monitoring changes in the level of disability over time. EDSS scale ranges from 0 to 10 in 0.5 unit increments and higher score refers to people with higher levels of disability by multiple sclerosis.

  3. Changes in functional evaluation scores (Functional Systems [FS]) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
    FS is based on a standard neurological examination; the 7 functional systems plus "other" (Pyramidal, Cerebellar, Brainstem, Sensory, Bowel and bladder function, Visual function, Cerebral [or mental] functions, other) are rated. Each FS is scored on a scale of 0 (no disability) to 5 or 6 (more severe disability), and total score ranging from 0 to 40. Higher score in each functional system refers to people with higher levels of disability by multiple sclerosis.
