Inability to follow the Protocol procedures (in the Investigator's opinion); 22. Contraindications to MRI or use of gadolinium-containing contrast agents: 1. Metal foreign objects in the body: magnetic implants, ferromagnetic clips for cerebral vessels, artificial heart valves, electronic middle ear implants, pacemakers; 2. A history of allergy to gadolinium or gadolinium-containing contrast agents; 3. Fear of cramped spaces; d) Kidney function impairment with a risk of delayed gadolinium elimination (creatinine level increased to more than 2 x upper limit of normal); d) Documented diagnosis of sickle cell or hemolytic anemia, hemoglobinopathy; 23.

Secondary | Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) | EDSS is a scale for assessing neurologic impairment in MS. It consists of eight functional systems (FS) which are used to derive the EDSS steps (score) ranging from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to MS). The functional systems are Visual, Brain Stem, Pyramidal, Cerebellar, Sensory, Bowel and Bladder, Cerebral and Other functions. Based on the assessment of each FS, the participant's score is determined between 0 to 10. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement | week 24, week 100 | |

Secondary | 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) | SF-36 it is a 36-item, patient-reported survey of patient health.The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability i.e., a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability | week 24, week 100 | |
Secondary | EQ-5D Questionnaire | EQ-5D - European Quality of Life Questionnaire. It has two components: health state description and evaluation. Rated level can be coded as a number 1, 2, or 3, which indicates having no problems for 1, having some problems for 2, and having extreme problems for 3. | week 24, week 100 | |
Secondary | MSQOL-54 Questionnaire | MSQOL - Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54. Two summary scores - physical health and mental health - can be derived from a weighted combination of scale scores.
MSQoL-54 has 0-100 scales. Higher values indicate better quality of life. |

Higher total scores indicate more severe depressive symptoms. |

Secondary | C-SSRS | The Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale, or C-SSRS, is a suicidal ideation and behavior rating scale.
