Clinical Trial Summary

Primary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of GZ402668 after a single subcutaneous (SC) dose in men and women with progressive multiple sclerosis. Secondary Objectives: To assess in men and women with progressive multiple sclerosis: - The pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of GZ402668 after a single SC dose. - The pharmacodynamic (PD) response to GZ402668 after a single SC dose.

Description:

The total study duration from screening for a patient can be approximately up to 8 weeks. Upon completion of this trial, patients treated with GZ402668 will be required to enroll in a 4 year safety follow-up study for continued safety observation.
