Study Summary

The primary objective was to demonstrate the effect of teriflunomide, in comparison to placebo, on frequency of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) relapses in patients with relapsing forms of MS who are treated with Interferon-beta (IFN-beta). The secondary objectives were: * Assess the effect of teriflunomide, in comparison to placebo, when added to IFN-beta on: * Disease activity as measured by brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) * Disability progression * Burden of disease and disease progression as measured by brain MRI * Evaluate the safety and tolerability of teriflunomide when added to IFN-beta therapy * Assess the pharmacokinetics of teriflunomide in use in addition to baseline IFN-beta therapy * Assess associations between variations in genes and clinical outcomes (safety and efficacy) * Assess other measures of efficacy of teriflunomide such as fatigue and health-related quality of life * Assess measures of health economics (hospitalization due to relapse, including the length of stay and any admission to intensive care unit)

Primary Outcome

ARR is the total number of confirmed relapses that occurred during the treatment period divided by the total number of patient-years treated. Each episode of relapse (appearance, or worsening of a clinical symptom that was stable for at least 30 days, that persisted for a minimum of 24 hours in the absence of fever) was to be confirmed by an increase in Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score or Functional System scores. To account for the different treatment durations among participants,
