General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
To measure the effect of teriflunomide on lymphocytes subsets in subjects with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (RMS) as compared with baseline values and those of a reference population of untreated healthy subjects.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Subjects were fully informed of all pertinent aspects of the clinical trial as well as the possibility to discontinue at any time in language and terms appropriate for the subject and considering the local culture. During the course of the trial, subjects were provided with individual subject cards indicating the nature of the trial the subject is participating, contact details and any information needed in the event of a medical emergency. Collected personal data and human biological samples were processed in compliance with the Sanofi-Aventis Group Personal Data Protection Charter ensuring that the Group abides by the laws governing personal data protection in force in all countries in which it operates.

Recruitment
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
Recruitment details |
The study was conducted at 9 centers in 3 countries (for RMS subjects) and at a single site in Germany (for healthy subjects). A total of 87 subjects (56 RMS subjects and 31 healthy subjects) were screened between 10 October 2013 and 24 June 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Pre-assignment
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
Screening details |
Of 56 RMS subjects screened, 50 were included and treated in the treatment arm. Of 31 healthy subjects screened, 20 were included in the healthy subjects' arm. 17 subjects (6 RMS subjects and 11 healthy subjects) were screen failure due to unmet inclusion criteria. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

Adverse event reporting additional description |
Reported AEs and deaths were AEs developed/worsened and deaths occurred during 'treatment-emergent period’(time from administration of first investigational study drug to last dose of study drug in extension period for those who entered in extension or to last data[lab,vital signs or AE] available for those who did not enter in extension period.
