Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of adverse events (AEs) [24 months]
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence experienced by a patient administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, whether or not related to the medicinal product(s).
- Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) [24 months]
A SAE is defined as an adverse event which: Is fatal or life-threatening Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity Constitutes a congenital anomaly/birth defect Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, unless hospitalization is for: Routine treatment or monitoring of the indication under study, not associated with any deterioration in condition Elective or pre-planned treatment for a pre-existing condition that is unrelated to the indication under study and has not worsened since the start of treatment with Kesimpta Social reasons and respite care in the absence of any deterioration in the patient's general condition Is medically significant, i.e., events that jeopardize the patient or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.
- Incidence of adverse reactions [24 months]
An adverse reaction is defined as an adverse event that is suspected by the investigator to be causally related to Kesimpta or whose causality is not recorded.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Physician's Global Assessment [month 12, month 24 (or at treatment discontinuation)]
The investigator will comprehensively assess the symptom changes in relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and active Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SPMS), rating the changes as "very much improved", "improved", "unchanged", "worsening" or "not assessable" in comparison with the symptoms at the start of this drug, and record the results in the Case report forms (CRFs).
- Confirmed disability worsening on Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) [Baseline, month 3, month 6, month 9, month 12, month 15, month 18, month 21, month 24 (or at discontinuation)]
EDSS is a method of quantifying disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) and monitoring changes in the level of disability over time. The scale ranges from 0 (being normal neurological exam and no disability in any functional system) up to 10 (death due to MS). Confirmed disability worsening on EDSS continuing for ≥ 3 months and ≥ 6 months (3mCDW, 6mCDW)
- Confirmed improvement on Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) [Baseline, month 3, month 6, month 9, month 12, month 15, month 18, month 21, month 24 (or at discontinuation)]
EDSS is a method of quantifying disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) and monitoring changes in the level of disability over time. The scale ranges from 0 (being normal neurological exam and no disability in any functional system) up to 10 (death due to MS). Confirmed improvement on EDSS continuing for ≥ 6 months (6mCDI)
- Number of gadolinium (Gd)-enhancing lesions on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) [Baseline, month 6, month 12, month 18, month 24 (or at discontinuation)]
The investigator will record, in the Case report forms (CRFs), the numbers of gadolinium (Gd)-enhancing lesions on MRI
- Annual relapse rate [Up to 24 months]
Relapse: Occurrence of new neurological abnormalities or pre-existing neurological abnormalities in stable state or remission occurring at least 30 days after the occurrence of the previous clinical demyelination event that continues at least for 24 hours without pyrexia and infection.
- No Evidence of Disease Activity (NEDA-3) [month 12, month 24]
NEDA-3 assessments: no relapse, no new/enlarged MRI lesion, no disability progression on EDSS
