Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ofatumumab s.c. in adult participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) in China.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study consisted of three periods, Screening (up to 30 days), Treatment (12 months) and Post-treatment follow-up (6 months). It was an open-label single-arm study so all participants received the study drug. The first dose was administered in the clinic and the remaining doses were administered at home. The doses were administered at Baseline/Week 0, Week 1, Week 2, and followed by subsequent monthly dosing starting at Week 4.

Participants were required to come into the clinic for one screening visit, and 5 visits during the Treatment period for clinical evaluation and lab tests. Participants who completed the 12-month treatment had Post treatment Follow-Up visits at End of Study plus 3 months (EOS + 3M) and EOS + 6M, unless the participants decided to continue with commercially available ofatumumab treatment outside of the study.
