Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) | Day 1 up to Week 561 | An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants Who Had Relapses | Day 1 up to Week 384 | Relapses were defined as new or recurrent neurologic symptoms not associated with fever or infection, lasting at least 24 hours. |
| Secondary | Annualized Relapse Rate (ARR) | Day 1 up to Week 384 | The annualized relapse rate is calculated as the total number of relapses occurred during the period for all participants, divided by the total number of participant-years followed in the period. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) at Week 384 | Baseline, Week 384 | EDSS scale ranges from 0 (Normal neurological exam, no disability) to 10 (Death) in 0.5 unit increments that represent higher levels of disability. Scoring is based on an examination by a neurologist. Sustained disability progression was defined as at least a 1.0 point increase on the EDSS from a baseline EDSS ≥1.0 that was sustained for at least 24 weeks, or a 1.5 point increase on the EDSS from a baseline EDSS =0 that was sustained for at least 24 weeks. |
| Secondary | Number of Gadolinium (Gd)-Enhancing Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) | Baseline up to Week 288 | The Gd-enhancing lesions was evaluated using MRI technique. |
| Secondary | Volume of Gd-Enhancing Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) | Baseline up to Week 288 | The Gd-enhancing lesions was evaluated using MRI technique. |
| Secondary | Number of New or Newly Enlarging T2 Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) | Baseline up to Week 288 | The T2 lesions was evaluated using MRI technique. |
| Secondary | Volume of New or Newly Enlarging T2 Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) | Baseline up to Week 288 | The T2 lesions was evaluated using MRI technique. |
| Secondary | Number of T1 Hypointense Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) | Baseline up to Week 288 | The T1 hypointense lesions was evaluated using MRI technique. |
| Secondary | Volume of T1 Hypointense Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) | Baseline up to Week 288 | The T1 hypointense lesions was evaluated using MRI technique. |
