Introduction

  • Ambulation and cognition are priorities for patients with

multiple sclerosis (MS)

  • The randomized, double‐blind DECIDE study found daclizumab

high‐yield process (DAC HYP) 150 mg subcutaneous (SC) reduced clinical and radiographic disease activity in patients with relapsing‐remitting MS (RRMS) compared with interferon (IFN) beta‐1a 30 mcg intramuscular (IM)1

– DAC HYP was associated with elevated risk of infections, cutaneous adverse events, and hepatic enzyme abnormalities1

Objective

  • To evaluate the effects of DAC HYP vs. IM IFN beta‐1a on

ambulation, hand/arm dexterity, and cognition, using the Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) and Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) in DECIDE

MSFC: A Measure of Disability in MS

  • Summary of the 3 MSFC components (T25FW, 9‐HPT, and PASAT‐3):
  • Generate appropriately weighted composite using the z score

– z scores are the number of standard deviations between scores for the individual and the reference population (e.g., MS population) – Negative change in MSFC z scores compared with Baseline or prior measurements indicate neurologic deterioration and disability progression, while a positive change in z score indicates neurologic improvement

Conclusions

  • Over 2–3 years of treatment, DAC HYP showed greater improvement

compared with IM IFN beta‐1a on patient‐centered measures of functional disability

– Improvement on MSFC composite z score (P=.0007) and all z scores of all subcomponents (P<.05) – Improvement on SDMT (P=.0274)

  • The findings of these objective measures of function and cognition

support the findings that DAC HYP demonstrated superior efficacy to IM IFN beta‐1a across key clinical and radiographic MS outcome measures1

  • DAC HYP has the potential to be a new treatment option for patients

with RRMS
