A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel-Group, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of PEGylated Interferon Beta-1a (BIIB017) in Subjects With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating BIIB017 (peginterferon beta-1a) and Placebo for Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis. Completed, enrolled 1,516 participants across 178 sites in 26 countries.
Detailed 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.
