Summary

This study reviewed medical records of 800 multiple sclerosis patients to see if gender, race, or socioeconomic status affected how quickly they started Ocrelizumab or how well it worked. Researchers looked at relapse rates and MRI changes over 12 to 24 months. The goal was to identify any differences in treatment access and outcomes among diverse groups.
