About this trial

The study is an investigator-run, study following participants for 2 years with twice-daily remibrutinib. MRI is the main endpoint. Safety, tolerability, and efficacy are secondary endpoints. Approximately 20 participants with relapsing or progressive forms of MS will be recruited.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Written informed consent signed by participant.
