A Multi-center Double-blind Parallel-group Placebo-controlled Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Teriflunomide in Patients With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis
The primary objective of the study is to assess the effect of two doses of Teriflunomide, in
comparison to placebo, on the frequency of multiple sclerosis (MS) relapses in patients with
relapsing MS.
Key secondary objective is to assess the effect of the two doses of teriflunomide, in
comparison to placebo, on disability progression.
Other secondary objectives are:
- To assess the effect of the two doses of teriflunomide in comparison to placebo on:
- Fatigue;
- Health-related quality of life, a measure of the impact of the patient's health on
his or her overall well being.
- To evaluate the safety and tolerability of teriflunomide.

- To evaluate the safety and tolerability of teriflunomide.
The study consists in:
- A core treatment period: Teriflunomide 7 mg or Teriflunomide 14 mg or placebo is
administered in double-blind fashion until a fixed common end date which is
approximately 48 weeks after randomization of the last participant.
- An extension treatment period: the highest dose of teriflunomide is administered in
open-label fashion to participants who successfully complete the core treatment period
and wish to continue.
The overall treatment period is followed by a 4-week elimination follow-up period.
- A core treatment period: Teriflunomide 7 mg or Teriflunomide 14 mg or placebo is
administered in double-blind fashion until a fixed common end date which is
approximately 48 weeks after randomization of the last participant.
- An extension treatment period: the highest dose of teriflunomide is administered in
open-label fashion to participants who successfully complete the core treatment period
and wish to continue.
The overall treatment period is followed by a 4-week elimination follow-up period.
