Cladribine provides immunomodulation through selective targeting of lymphocyte subtypes. We report the results of a 96-week phase 3 trial of a short-course oral tablet therapy in patients with relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis. We randomly assigned 1326 patients in an approximate 1:1:1 ratio to receive one of two cumulative doses of cladribine tablets (either 3.5 mg or 5.25 mg per kilogram of body weight) or matching placebo, given in two or four short courses for the first 48 weeks, then in two short courses starting at week 48 and week 52 (for a total of 8 to 20 days per year). The primary end point was the rate of relapse at 96 weeks. Among patients who received cladribine tablets (either 3.5 mg or 5.25 mg per kilogram), there was a significantly lower annualized rate of relapse than in the placebo group (0.14 and 0.15, respectively, vs. 0.33 ; P

Summary Background Interferon beta-1a and glatiramer acetate are commonly prescribed for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), but no published randomised trials have directly compared these two drugs. Our aim in the REGARD (REbif vs Glatiramer Acetate in Relapsing MS Disease) study was to compare interferon beta-1a with glatiramer acetate in patients with RRMS. Methods In this multicentre, randomised, comparative, parallel-group, open-label study, patients with RRMS diagnosed with the McDonald criteria who had had at least one relapse within the previous 12 months were randomised to receive 44 μg subcutaneous interferon beta-1a three times per week or 20 mg subcutaneous glatiramer acetate once per day for 96 weeks to assess the time to first relapse. A subpopulation of 460 patients (230 from each group) also had serial MRI scans to assess T2-weighted and gadolinium-enhancing lesion number and volume. Treatments were assigned by a computer-generated randomisation list that was stratified by centre. Analysis was by intention to treat. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00078338. Findings Between February and December, 2004, 764 patients were randomly assigned: 386 to interferon beta-1a and 378 to glatiramer acetate. After 96 weeks, there was no significant difference between groups in time to first relapse (hazard ratio 0·94, 95% CI 0·74 to 1·21; p=0·64). Relapse rates were lower than expected: 258 patients (126 in the interferon beta-1a group and 132 in the glatiramer acetate group) had one or more relapses (the expected number was 460). For secondary outcomes, there were no significant differences for the number and change in volume of T2 active lesions or for the change in the volume of gadolinium-enhancing lesions, although patients treated with interferon beta-1a had significantly fewer gadolinium-enhancing lesions (0·24 vs 0·41 lesions per patient per scan, 95% CI −0·4 to 0·1; p=0·0002). Safety and tolerability profiles were consistent with the known profiles for both compounds. The overall number and severity of adverse events were similar between the treatments and were not an important cause for discontinuation of the trial during the 96 weeks. Interpretation There was no significant difference between interferon beta-1a and glatiramer acetate in the primary outcome. The ability to predict clinical superiority on the basis of results from previous studies might be limited by a trial population with low disease activity, which is an important consideration for ongoing and future trials in patients with RRMS.

In a 6-month, placebo-controlled trial, oral fingolimod (FTY720) 1.25 or 5.0 mg, once daily, significantly reduced MRI inflammatory activity and annualized relapse rate compared with placebo in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS). The objectives were to monitor the 36-month, interim efficacy and safety results of the ongoing extension of this study. In the extension (months 7—36), placebo-treated patients were re-randomized to either dose of fingolimod; fingolimod-treated patients continued at the same dose. During months 15—24, all patients receiving fingolimod 5.0 mg switched to 1.25 mg. Of the 250 patients who entered the extension study, 173 (69%) continued to month 36. Most patients were free from gadolinium-enhanced lesions (88—89%) or new T2 lesions (70—78%) at month 36. Patients receiving continuous fingolimod treatment had sustained low annualized relapse rates of 0.20—0.21, and 68—73% remained relapse-free at month 36. Over 36 months, nasopharyngitis (34%), headache (30%), fatigue (19%) and influenza (18%) were the most commonly reported adverse events. Pulmonary function remained stable and blood pressure was stable after an initial increase (3—5 mmHg) during the first 6 months of fingolimod treatment; serious adverse events included infections and skin cancer. The low MRI and clinical disease activity at 6 months were maintained at 36 months with fingolimod, which was generally well tolerated by most patients. The efficacy and safety of oral fingolimod are being further evaluated in a large phase III MS study programme.

Objective:: To report the results of a 24-month extension of a phase II trial assessing the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the once-daily oral sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor modulator, fingolimod (FTY720), in relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS:: In the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled core study, 281 patients received placebo or FTY720, 1.25 or 5.0 mg/day, for 6 months. During the subsequent dose-blinded extension, patients assigned to placebo were re-randomized to either dose of FTY720; those originally assigned to FTY720 continued at the same dose. Patients receiving FTY720 5.0 mg were switched to 1.25 mg during the month 15 to month 24 study visits. RESULTS:: Of 281 patients randomized in the core study, 250 (89%) entered the extension phase, and 189 (75.6%) received treatment for 24 months. During the core study, FTY720 significantly reduced gadolinium-enhanced (Gd) lesions and annualized relapse rate (ARR) compared with placebo, with no differences between doses. During the extension phase, patients who switched from placebo to FTY720 showed clear reductions in ARR and lesion counts compared with the placebo phase; ARR and lesion counts remained low in patients who continued FTY720 treatment. After 24 months, 79 to 91% of patients were free from Gd lesions and up to 77% of patients remained relapse free. FTY720 was well tolerated; no new safety concerns emerged during months 7 to 24 compared with the 6-month core study. CONCLUSIONS:: Once-daily oral treatment with FTY720, 1.25 or 5.0 mg, for up to 2 years, was well tolerated and was associated with low relapse rates and lesion activity. © 2009 AAN Enterprises, Inc.
