Brief Summary

National, multicenter study:

The study consists of 3 periods:

1. A baseline visit to confirm that patient is still in CIS status. All patients will be clinically evaluated for CDMS and an MRI (less than 2 months) will be analyzed to exclude MS patients according to 2010 Mc Donald's criteria.

2. Treatment period with timed evaluations

3. Post-treatment period: 4 weeks, with 2 visits following study drug discontinuation and accelerated elimination procedure. All patients who discontinue the study drug and according to investgator's decision, will perform the accelerated elimination procedure and the post- accelerated elimination visits (at 2 and 4 weeks after the end of treatment (EOT).
