Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of multiple doses of AIN457 in reducing the number of new Gadolinium-enhancing lesions on MRI compared to placebo;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of 3 doses of AIN457;Primary end point(s): To define the efficacy of AIN457, relative to placebo, in reducing the cumulative number of new Gadolinium-enhancing T1-weighted lesions recorded on all available MRI scans;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At months 3, 4, 5 and 6

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of three doses of AIN457, relative to placebo, in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis - To evaluate the effect of AIN457, over a range of doses, on other parameters of disease activity as evaluated by MRI - To evaluate the effect of AIN457, over a range of doses, on clinical disease activity as evaluated by annualized relapse rate ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At months 0 to 6
