Long-term Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of BAF312 Given Orally in Patients With Relapsing-remitting Multiple Sclerosis

This study consisted of a two year dose blinded phase during which patients received one of five doses of siponimod (10, 2, 1.25, 0.5 or 0.25mg) following which patients were switched to open label treatment with siponimod 2mg for approximately a further 3 years. It will provide data on long term safety, tolerability and efficacy of siponimod in the RRMS patient population

This study was prematurely discontinued after approximately 5 years. The decision to prematurely discontinue the study was not taken due to safety-related concerns, rather due to a decision to focus the development of siponimod in MS on a different population.
