Efficacy and Safety of Remibrutinib After Switching From Ocrelizumab in Participants Living With Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis.
The purpose of this Phase 3b study is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of remibrutinib after switching from ocrelizumab and compared to continuous ocrelizumab treatment, in patients living with relapsing multiple sclerosis (plwRMS).
Study details:
The study is a randomized, open-label, non-inferiority multi-center, Phase 3b study to provide efficacy, safety, and tolerability data for remibrutinib after switching from ocrelizumab and in comparison to continuous ocrelizumab in plwRMS. This study consists of an initial Core Part (CP) (maximum duration per participant of up to 24 months), followed by an Extension Part (EP) (of up to 24 months duration) for eligible participants. All participants completing the 24-month treatment of the Core Part of the study may be eligible to continue in the Extension Part, an open-label, single-arm, fixed-dose design in which participants are treated with remibrutinib for up to 24 months.
The study will be conducted in the USA among other countries globally.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Annualized rate of new or enlarging T2 lesions_Core Part | Number of new/enlarging T2 lesions per year on MRI at month 24 (relative to baseline) | Baseline up to month 24 |
Secondary Outcome
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Participants with no evidence of disease activity-3 (NEDA-3)_Core Part | Participants with no evidence of disease activity-3 (NEDA-3), as assessed by absence of confirmed MS relapses, 6-month confirmed disability progression (6mCDP) and new/enlarging T2 lesions on MRI | Baseline up to month 24 |
| Number of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)_Core Part | Adverse events will be collected throughout the trial. Any safety assessment findings such as laboratory, vital signs, electrocardiogram data that are considered clinically significant or meet the protocol definition of an adverse event will be reported as adverse event or serious adverse event, as appropriate | Baseline up to month 24 |
| Annualized rate of new or enlarging T2 lesions_Extension Part | Number of new/enlarging T2 lesions per year on MRI | Month 24 up to month 48 |
| Participants with no evidence of disease activity-3 (NEDA-3)_Extension Part | Participants with no evidence of disease activity-3 (NEDA-3), as assessed by absence of confirmed MS relapses, 6-month confirmed disability progression (6mCDP) and new/enlarging T2 lesions on MRI | Month 24 up to month 48 |
| Number of Adverse events and serious adverse events_Extension Part | Adverse events will be collected throughout the trial. Any safety assessment findings such as laboratory, vital signs, electrocardiogram data that are considered clinically significant or meet the protocol definition of an adverse event will be reported as adverse event or serious adverse event, as appropriate | Month 24 up to month 48 |
