Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Research Studies
The Comparison of Alemtuzumab and Rebif® Efficacy in Multiple Sclerosis (CARE-MSSM)
I and II studies are designed to determine the safety and effectiveness of the investigational
drug alemtuzumab as compared to the FDA-approved therapy Rebif (interferon beta-1a),
in adults with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The studies will look
for differences between these drugs on the progression of disability and in the
number of relapses (flare-ups) and brain lesions caused by MS. The studies also
will compare the side effects of the drugs and monitor for risks during and after
treatment.
CARE-MS I and II study participants will receive the following at no cost:
- Alemtuzumab or the FDA-approved therapy Rebif
- Study-related monitoring and care from study doctors and healthcare professionals
To be eligible to participate in the studies, volunteers must be between the ages
of 18 and 50 (CARE-MS I) or 18 and 55 (CARE-MS II) and meet specific criteria, including
having a diagnosis of RRMS and first experiencing MS symptoms within the last 5
years (CARE-MS I) or 10 years (CARE-MS II).
