Study Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of peginterferon beta-1a in reducing the annualized relapse rate (ARR) in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) at 1 year. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine whether peginterferon beta-1a, at 1 year when compared with placebo, is effective in reducing the total number of new or newly enlarging T2 hyperintense lesions on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, reducing the proportion of participants who relapse, and slowing the progression of disability.

Primary Outcome

A relapse is defined as new or recurrent neurologic symptoms not associated with fever or infection, lasting for at least 24 hours, and accompanied by new objective neurologic findings. Only relapses confirmed by an independent neurology evaluation committee (INEC) are included in the analysis. Data after participants switched to alternative multiple sclerosis (MS) medications are excluded. Data were analyzed using negative binomial regression, adjusted for baseline Expanded Disability Status Sc
