A study to assess the safety and efficacy of BIIB091 in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis
Résumé de l'étude
This is a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BIIB091 alone and BIIB091 in combination with Diroximelfumarate (DRF). "Randomized" means that you will be randomly assigned to a group, similar to flipping a coin. "Double-blind" means that neither you nor the study doctor (double-blind) knows which treatment you are receiving. "Active-controlled" is a study where the efficacy of a new drug is compared to another drug whose efficacy is already known. To ensure that the patient and the doctor do not know which medication the patient is receiving, all patients take both forms, with only one form containing the investigational drug, while the other is a placebo. A placebo looks like the investigational drug but contains no active medication.

Intervention étudiée
The combination of BIIB091 with DRF may have an additional effect in the treatment of MS. This study consists of 2 consecutive parts.
In Part 1, participants are divided into 3 groups: BIIB091 alone at high or low dose or DRF alone at the standard dose. After 16 weeks, the benefit-risk profile of the treatment is determined and the BIIB091 dose for Part 2 is selected.
In Part 2, participants are divided into 3 groups: the selected BIIB091 dose in combination with the standard dose of DRF or with a lower dose of DRF or again DRF alone at the standard dose.
In both Part 1 and Part 2, 20 visits to the trial center will take place. Both parts are divided into:
1. during screening, tests are conducted to determine if a patient is eligible to participate in the study.
2. the study medication is taken over a period of 48 weeks.
3. In the final phase, health and symptoms are observed after the intake of the investigational drug has ended.
Participation in Part 1 or Part 2 lasts up to 54 weeks each.

Maladie en cours d'investigation
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by inflammation and loss of neurons. It is a disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that affects approximately 2.5 million people worldwide and is typically diagnosed in young to middle-aged adults. While there have been significant advances in MS care over the past 25 years, many people with MS continue to experience permanent disabilities and loss of independence in performing activities of daily living. Furthermore, many of the currently approved therapies are associated with complex monitoring or the risk of serious side effects. Therefore, there remains a need for therapies that combat inflammation at the early onset of the disease but have an acceptable safety profile with a low risk of side effects for the patient. The pathological changes underlying MS are thought to be mediated by freely mobile white blood cells that cross the blood-brain barrier and trigger a cascade of events that injure both the gray and white matter of the brain. This pathological activity of white blood cells is considered a key factor in maintaining inflammation in MS.

1. The participant must be between 18 and 55 years old and must be able to provide a diagnosis of RMS with MS symptoms that occurred less than 20 years ago. At screening, the participant must have an EDSS score of 0 to 5.0 and at least one of the following points must have occurred: - at least 2 clinical relapses in the last 24 months with at least one relapse in the last 12 months prior to randomization AND/OR - at least 1 clinical relapse in the last 24 months and at least 1 new brain MRI lesion within the last 12 months prior to randomization AND/OR - at least 1 GdE (Gadolinium-enhancing) lesion on brain MRI in the last 6 months prior to randomization. 2. The participant and/or their legal representative must be able to understand the purpose and risks of the study, provide informed consent, and approve the use of confidential health data in accordance with national and local data protection regulations. 3. Contraception: Female participants of childbearing potential and male participants must use a highly effective or effective method of contraception during the study and for at least 30 days after the last dose of the study treatment. Additionally, all participants should not donate eggs or sperm during the study and for at least 30 days after the last dose of the study treatment. (BASEC)
