Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Annualized Relapse Rate
2 years

A protocol-defined relapse was defined as new or recurrent neurologic symptoms not associated with fever or infection that lasted at least 24 hours, and were separated by at least 30 days from onset of a preceding relapse. All protocol-defined relapses were evaluated by an independent neurologic evaluation committee. The adjusted annualized relapse rate was calculated from a negative binomial regression model , adjusted for baseline Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS ) score(≤2.0 versus\>2.0), age (\<40 versus ≥40 years), region, and the number of relapses in the 1 year prior to enrollment.

Proportion of Subjects Relapsed
2 years

A protocol-defined relapse was defined as new or recurrent neurologic symptoms not associated with fever or infection that lasted at least 24 hours, and were separated by at least 30 days from onset of a preceding relapse. All protocol-defined relapses were evaluated by an independent neurolgic evaluation committee. The proportion of subjects with a relapse was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, which was based on the time-to-first-relapse survival distribution.

The primary objective is the proportion of subjects with ACR20 response in their RA at Week 12.

The primary endpoint for the primary objective is the total number of MRI lesions at Weeks 12, 16, 20, and 24.
