Summary

This study tested a drug called natalizumab, given as a shot under the skin every 4 weeks, in Japanese adults with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS). The goal was to see if it could reduce new brain lesions over 24 weeks. Only 21 people were enrolled, and the study was stopped early, so results are limited.
