First seen May 16, 2026 ยท Last updated May 16, 2026

Summary

This study looked at blood samples from 40 people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) before and after 6 months of treatment with ofatumumab (Kesimpta). Researchers tested whether immune cells from treated patients were less harmful to mouse brain cells grown in a lab dish. The goal was to understand how the drug might protect the brain, not to directly treat patients.
