Summary

This study looks at how the drug ocrelizumab changes certain markers in the spinal fluid of people newly diagnosed with relapsing multiple sclerosis or a related early condition. Researchers want to see if starting treatment right away can reduce signs of long-term inflammation in the brain. About 30 adults aged 18 to 50 who have not taken any MS drugs before will receive ocrelizumab and have their spinal fluid tested before and after three years of treatment.
