| Arm | Intervention/treatment |
|---|---|
|
Active Comparator: Ocrelizumab: Intravenous (IV) formulation
Participants will receive the first dose of ocrelizumab IV as two IV infusions given 14 days apart. The subsequent doses of study drug will be administered as SC injections. A minimum of 22 weeks should be kept between SC doses. Participants will undergo 96 weeks of study treatment.
|
Drug: Ocrelizumab IV
IV Injection
Other Name: RO4964913 Drug: Methylprednisolone IV Participants will receive mandatory (corticosteroids and antihistamine) and optional (analgesic) prophylactic treatment before the start of each ocrelizumab infusion Drug: Diphenhydramine IV Participants will receive mandatory (corticosteroids and antihistamine) and optional (analgesic) prophylactic treatment before the start of each ocrelizumab infusion |
|
Experimental: Ocrelizumab: Subcutaneous (SC) formulation
Participants will receive the first dose of ocrelizumab SC as one SC injection at a dose which is expected to result in non-inferior exposure to ocrelizumab IV. The subsequent doses of study drug will be administered as SC injections. A minimum of 22 weeks should be kept between the first and second SC doses, and between subsequent SC doses. Participants will undergo 96 weeks of study treatment.

Drug: Ocrelizumab SC
SC Injection

- Total number of new or enlarging T2 lesions as detected by brain MRI [ Time Frame: Weeks 12 and 24 ]
- Percentage of participants with Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 48 ]
- Incidence of treatment-emergent antidrug antibodies to ocrelizumab after SC or IV administration [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 48 ]
- Incidence of treatment-emergent antibodies to rHuPH20 [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 48 ]
- Proportion of participants achieving CD19+ B cell level ≤5 cells/uL [ Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 48 ]

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Diagnosis of PPMS or RMS according to the revised McDonald 2017 criteria (Thompson et al. 2018)

- Neurological stability for ≥30 days prior to both screening and baseline
- Disease duration from onset of MS symptoms of less than 15 years for patients with EDSS score <2.0 at screening
- For females participants, without reproductive potential may be enrolled if post-menopausal, unless receiving a hormonal therapy for menopause or if surgically sterile
- For females of childbearing potential, agreement to remain abstinent or use adequate contraceptive methods
Exclusion Criteria:
- Any known or suspected active infection at screening or baseline (except nailbed infections), or any major episode of infection requiring hospitalization or treatment with IV anti microbials within 8 weeks prior to and during screening or treatment with oral anti microbials within 2 weeks prior to and during screening
- History of confirmed or suspected progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)
- History of cancer, including hematologic malignancy and solid tumors, within 10 years of screening

- Inability to complete an MRI or contraindication to gadolinium administration
- Contraindications to mandatory premedications for IRRs, including closed-angle glaucoma for antihistamines
- Known presence of other neurologic disorders
- Any concomitant disease that may require chronic treatment with systemic corticosteroids or immunosuppressants during the course of the study
- Significant, uncontrolled disease, such as cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, hepatic, endocrine or gastrointestinal, or any other significant disease that may preclude patient from participating in the study
- History of or currently active primary or secondary (non-drug-related) immunodeficiency

- Participants who have previously received anti-CD20s if the last treatment was less than 2 years before screening, and/or if B-cell count is below lower limit of normal, and/or the discontinuation of the treatment was due to safety reasons or lack of efficacy
- Previous treatment with cladribine, atacicept, and alemtuzumab
