Real-world MS drug study tracks relapse reduction in italian patients
NCT ID NCT06345157
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how well ofatumumab (Kesimpta®) works for people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) in real-life settings across Italy. About 379 adults already prescribed the drug will be followed for 12 months to measure relapse rates and thinking speed. The goal is to see if the benefits seen in clinical trials hold up outside of a controlled environment.

Patient or a legal representative of the patient must provide written informed consent before any study assessment is performed. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients outside the approved label of ofatumumab. 2. Pregnant and lactating women. 3. Patients with any clinical condition that may interfere with the subject's ability to cooperate and comply with the study procedures based on investigator's judgement. 4. Patients cannot participate in this non-interventional study if they also participate in an interventional trial. 5. Treatment with ofatumumab prior to inclusion in this study or after 7 days from baseline visit.
