Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (10)

  • Mean expanded disability status scale (EDSS) score at the end of trial participation

    The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score is ranged between 1 (No disability, minimal signs in one Functional System) and 10 (death due to MS) measured in half-points on an ordinal scale.

    Up to 2 years

  • Proportion of patients having the mean EDSS score of less than or equal to 3.0 and more than or equal to 3.5 at the end of the trial

    The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score is ranged between 1 (No disability, minimal signs in one Functional System) and 10 (death due to MS) measured in half-points on an ordinal scale.

    Up to 2 years

  • Mean frequency of complications recorded after start of betaferon therapy

    Up to 2 years

  • Mean EDSS score on the exacerbations recorded after start of betaferon therapy

    The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score is ranged between 1 (No disability, minimal signs in one Functional System) and 10 (death due to MS) measured in half-points on an ordinal scale.

    Up to 2 years

  • Number of adverse events described during the trial and described as possibly, likely, or undoubtedly associated with the test drug

    Up to 2 years

  • Number of mild, moderate, or severe adverse events

    Up to 2 years

  • Number of serious adverse events described during the trial

    Up to 2 years

  • Number of adverse events described during the trial and classified as an flu-like syndrome

    Up to 2 years

  • Number of adverse events described during the trial and classified as a local reaction

    Up to 2 years

  • Number of cases of betaferon discontinuation due to adverse events

    Up to 2 years

Study Arms (1)

Patients treated with Betaferon

Patients with very early onset of MS, who received at least one injection of interferon beta-1b as prescribed by the treating physician, before the age of 18.

Drug: Interferon beta-1b (Betaseron, Betaferon, BAY86-5046)

Interventions

Betaferon was injected subcutaneously as prescribed by the treating physician.

Patients treated with Betaferon

Eligibility Criteria

AgeUp to 18 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

You may qualify if:

  • patients with symptoms consistent with the diagnosis of a demyelinating CNS disease
  • patients who received at least one injection of Betaferon before age 18 (before their 18th birthday)
  • recorded use of at least one dose of Betaferon before January 1, 2008
