Ocrelizumab versus placebi in primary progressive multiplesclerosis

In the phase 3 trial 732 patients were randomly assigned with primary progressive multiple sclerosis in a 2:1 ratio to receive intravenous ocrelizumab or placebo every 24 weeks for at least 120 weeks and until a prespecified number of confirmed disability progression events had occurred.Neoplasms occurred in 2.3% of patients who received ocrelizumab and in 0.8% of patients who received placebo. Among patients with primary progressive multiple sclerosis, ocrelizumab was associated with lower rates of clinical and MRI progression than placebo..
