Study Summary

The study AC-058B301 (OPTIMUM; NCT02425644) has been designed to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ponesimod in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). The AC-058B303 study is the long-term extension for the core study AC-058B301. The purpose of this long term extension of the core study AC-058B301 is to characterize the long-term safety, tolerability, and control of disease of ponesimod 20 mg in subjects with RMS.

Primary Outcome

ARR: number of confirmed relapses per patient-year. Relapse: new, worsening, or recurrent neurological symptoms that occurred at least 30 days after the onset of a preceding relapse, and that lasted at least 24 hours, in the absence of fever or infection. A confirmed relapse is identified when a patient's symptoms worsen as indicated by an increase in their Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) or Functional Systems (FS) scores, consistent with previous clinically stable assessments.
