A Multicenter Study of Continued Current Therapy vs Transition to Ofatumumab After Neurofilament (NfL) Elevation

Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis

This study will evaluate if relapsing-remitting MS patients that have not had a relapse in the past year would benefit from a switch to ofatumumab versus staying on their continued current therapy. This study will also look at whether an elevated serum neurofilament light (NfL) level predicts enhanced benefit from a switch to ofatumumab.
