Brief Summary

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

This was an observational retrospective cohort study using electronic medical records (EMRs) to study immunoglobulin levels over time among patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) newly initiating anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody treatment in clinical practice.

The index date was defined as the date of anti-CD20 drug initiation during the study period. The baseline period was defined as 12 months prior to the index date.
