ListOutcomeTime frameDescriptionSource
PrimaryProportion of patients with worsening in cognitive improvement over 2 years.Up to 2 years
As measured by at least 2 standard deviation (SD) below Italian normative data of the Rao's Brief Repeatable Battery of Neuropsychological Tests (BRB) and a 100-item version of the Stroop Test. The Brief Repeatable Battery of Neuropsychological Tests (BRB-N) is a sensitive measure of cognitive impairment in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. The Stroop Test is a test used to measure a person's sustained attention for word reading and color naming with and without interference.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryChange in cognitive impairment index score (CII) over two yearsUp to 2 years
An individual cognitive change index will be measured by calculating changes on the cognitive impairment index (CII) for each participant between year 0 and year 1, and year 0 and year 2. The CII is an individual cognitive change index aimed at providing a more precise assessment of the amount and direction of cognitive changes over time.

SecondaryProportion of patients with 6-month sustained progression of disability as measured by at least a 1.0 point increase from a baseline EDSS>1.0 or at least a 1.5 point increase from a baseline EDSS=0).Up to 2 years
The Kurtzke Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) is a method of quantifying disability in multiple sclerosis. The EDSS quantifies disability in eight Functional Systems (FS) and allows neurologists to assign a Functional System Score (FSS) in each of these. Each functional system is scored on a scale of 0 (no disability) to 5 or 6 (more severe disability). EDSS steps 1.0 to 4.5 refer to people with MS who are fully ambulatory. EDSS steps 5.0 to 9.5 are defined by the impairment to ambulation.

SecondaryAssessment of baseline demographic, disease characteristics and related patient reported outcomes that predict CI at two years.Up to 2 yearsDemographics may include age and gender, disease characteristics may include year of diagnosis and disability and PRO may include fatigue and depression at the time of initiation of BG00012.ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryChange from baseline in a self rating version of the Montgomery and Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS)2 yearsThe MADRS instrument has nine questions, with an overall score ranging from 0 to 27 pointsClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryChange from baseline in fatigue as measured by the Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS)2 years
The MFIS is a modified form of the Fatigue Impact Scale based on items derived from interviews with MS patients concerning how fatigue impacts their lives. This instrument provides an assessment of the effects of fatigue in terms of physical, cognitive, and psychosocial functioning. The full-length MFIS consists of 21 items

SecondaryChange from baseline in Quality of life (QOL) as measured by the EQ-5D Health Survey2 years
The EQ-5D is a widely-used survey instrument for measuring economic preferences for health states. It is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 5 sets of 3 questions pertaining to specific health states (i.e., mobility, self-care, pain, usual activities, anxiety).
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryChange from baseline in the Environmental Status Scale (ESS)2 years
The Environmental Status Scale (ESS) is used to quickly evaluate a patient for handicap. It was derived from a measure of socio-economic status. It consists of seven parameters: (1) actual work status, (2) financial and economic status, (3) personal residence or home, (4) personal assistance required, (5) transportation, (6) community services, (7) social activity. Each parameter has a single score from minimum 0 to maximum 5. ESS score is the sum of the points for all 7 parameters: minimum score: 0; maximum score: 35. The higher the score the greater the handicap.
