Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber 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.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Who Had RelapsesDay 1 up to Week 384Relapses were defined as new or recurrent neurologic symptoms not associated with fever or infection, lasting at least 24 hours.
SecondaryAnnualized Relapse Rate (ARR)Day 1 up to Week 384The 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.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) at Week 384Baseline, 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.
SecondaryNumber of Gadolinium (Gd)-Enhancing Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Baseline up to Week 288The Gd-enhancing lesions was evaluated using MRI technique.
SecondaryVolume of Gd-Enhancing Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Baseline up to Week 288The Gd-enhancing lesions was evaluated using MRI technique.
SecondaryNumber of New or Newly Enlarging T2 Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Baseline up to Week 288The T2 lesions was evaluated using MRI technique.
SecondaryVolume of New or Newly Enlarging T2 Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Baseline up to Week 288The T2 lesions was evaluated using MRI technique.
SecondaryNumber of T1 Hypointense Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Baseline up to Week 288The T1 hypointense lesions was evaluated using MRI technique.
SecondaryVolume of T1 Hypointense Lesions as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Baseline up to Week 288The T1 hypointense lesions was evaluated using MRI technique.
