SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to week 97

Population: Not all patients may have been available at all time points for EDSS evaluation

The EDSS is a scale for assessing neurological impairment in MS (Kurtzke 1983) including (1) a series of scores in each of eight functional systems, and (2) the EDSS steps (ranging from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to MS). The functional systems are Visual, Brain Stem, Pyramidal, Cerebellar, Sensory, Bowel and Bladder, Cerebral and Other functions.
