A Multicenter Study of Continued Current Therapy vs Transition to Ofatumumab After Neurofilament (NfL) Elevation

A Randomized, Open Label, Multi-center, Active-comparator Study to Assess Efficacy, Safety & Tolerability of Ofatumumab 20mg sc Monthly Versus Continued Current Therapy in Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis After Elevation of Serum Neurofilament Light Levels (SOSTOS)

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05090371

Novartis Reference Number: COMB157GUS09

Last Update: Apr 07, 2022

All compounds are either investigational or being studied for (a) new use(s). Efficacy and safety have not been established. There is no guarantee that they will become commercially available for the use(s) under investigation.

Study Description

This study will evaluate if relapsing-remitting MS patients that have not had a relapse in the past year would benefit from a switch to ofatumumab versus staying on their continued current therapy. This study will also look at whether an elevated serum neurofilament light (NfL) level predicts enhanced benefit from a switch to ofatumumab.
