Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety profile of BG00012 (dimethyl fumarate). Secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate the long-term efficacy of BG00012 using clinical endpoints and disability progression, to evaluate further the long-term effects of BG00012 on multiple sclerosis (MS) brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans in participants who had MRI scans as part of Studies 109MS301 (NCT00420212) and 109MS302 (NCT00451451) and to evaluate the long-term effects of BG00012 on health economics assessments and the visual function test.

Eligibility Criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria

-Subjects who participated in and completed as per protocol previous BG00012 clinical studies 109MS301 (NCT00420212) or 109MS302 (NCT00451451).

Key Exclusion Criteria

  • Any significant change in medical history from 109MS301 or 109MS302 that would have excluded subject's participation from their previous study.
  • Subjects from 109MS301 or 109MS302 who discontinued oral study treatment due to an AE or due to reasons other than protocol-defined relapse/disability progression.
  • Subjects from 109MS301 or 109MS302 who discontinued study treatment due to disability progression or relapses and did not follow the modified visit schedule up to Week 96.

NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
