A Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Parallel-group Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Ofatumumab Versus Teriflunomide in Patients With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis.
To compare the efficacy and safety of ofatumumab administered subcutaneously (sc) every 4
weeks versus teriflunomide administered orally once daily in patients with relapsing multiple
sclerosis
weeks versus teriflunomide administered orally once daily in patients with relapsing multiple
sclerosis
This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active comparator-controlled,
parallel-group, multicenter study with variable treatment duration in approximately 900
patients with relapsing MS. The maximal treatment duration in the study for an individual
patient will be 2.5 years.
Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either experimental ofatumumab subcutaneous
(sc) injections every 4 weeks or active comparator teriflunomide orally once daily. In order
to blind for the different formulations, double-dummy masking will be used i.e. all patients
will take injections (containing either active ofatumumab or placebo) and oral capsules
(containing either active teriflunomide or placebo).
