About the EXPAND study
double-blinded, placebo-controlled Phase III study, comparing the efficacy and safety of BAF312 versus placebo in people with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS).[2] The study included 1,651 people with SPMS from 31 countries. Patients were randomized to receive either 2mg BAF312 or placebo in a 2:1 ratio respectively.[2]
The primary endpoint of the study was an improvement in the time to three-month confirmed disability progression, as measured by the expanded disability status scale (EDSS), versus placebo.[2] Secondary endpoints included delay in the time to six-month confirmed disability progression versus placebo, the time to confirmed worsening of at least 20% from baseline in the timed 25-foot walk test (T25FW), T2 lesion volume, annualized relapse rate (ARR), and the safety and tolerability of BAF312 in people with SPMS.[2]

巨大市場のMSやNASHはライバルとの開発競争に打ち勝たなければなりません。この分野は3番目までが生き残れると言われています。結果が出たら速やかに導出すべきで、早売り安売りのラクオリアみたいではだめですが、宝の持ち腐れでは元も子もありません。
