An Extension Protocol for Multiple Sclerosis Patients Who Participated in Genzyme-Sponsored Studies of Alemtuzumab
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating alemtuzumab for Multiple Sclerosis, Relapsing-Remitting. Completed, enrolled 1,314 participants across 176 sites in 23 countries.
Detailed Summary
This open-label, rater-blinded extension study enrolled participants who had relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and who participated in one of three prior Genzyme-sponsored studies of alemtuzumab (CAMMS223 \[NCT00050778\], CAMMS323 \[NCT00530348\] also known as CARE-MS I, or CAMMS324 \[NCT00548405\] also known as CARE-MS II). The purposes of this study were: 1. To examine the long term safety and efficacy of alemtuzumab treatment in participants who received alemtuzumab as their study treatment in one of the prior studies. 2. To examine the safety and efficacy of initial alemtuzumab treatment in this study for participants who received Rebif® (interferon beta-1a) as their study treatment in one of the prior studies. 3. To determine the safety and efficacy of additional "as needed" alemtuzumab treatment courses. This applied both to participants who received alemtuzumab for the first time in one of the prior studies or for the first time in this extension study.
