| Description |
Alemtuzumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that alters the circulating lymphocyte pool. In a 3-year, phase 2 trial, alemtuzumab was superior to subcutaneous IFNB-1a in patients with early, active relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), significantly reducing relapse rate, risk for sustained accumulation of disability, and mean disability. |
