MS drug ocrelizumab gets a Needle-Free makeover: new shot form tested

NCT ID NCT07667322

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a new way to give ocrelizumab (Ocrevus) for multiple sclerosis — as a simple shot under the skin instead of a long IV infusion. About 75 adults with MS will receive increasing doses to see if the new form is safe and tolerable. If it works, it could make treatment much more convenient.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

ocrelizumab (Ocrevus) given as a shot under the skin

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a more convenient way to take ocrelizumab for multiple sclerosis, potentially reducing infusion time and side effects.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 1 trial with only 75 people, so safety and effectiveness are not yet proven. The new injection form may cause different side effects or not work as well as the current IV version.
