#AANAM – Kesimpta Prevents MS Worsening in Newly Diagnosed


team is providing in-depth coverage of the 2021 Virtual AAN Annual Meeting, April 17–22. Go here to read the latest stories from the conference.
Kesimpta (ofatumumab) may now be prescribed through the National Health Service (NHS) of England and Wales as an at-home, self-administered treatment for people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who are either having relapses or have other evidence of MS activity.
A poster presentation at the AAN meeting, based on Phase 3 data in newly diagnosed patients, also showed it effective at preventing disability progression in the absence of a relapse in this group.
The National Institute for Health Care and Excellence (NICE) made the recommendation to include Kesimpta in the NHS, allowing RRMS patients to access it at low and fixed prices, following Kesimpta’s recent approval in the U.K. for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). ....

#AANAM – Measuring Blood Proteins in SPMS Could Predict Disability


team is providing in-depth coverage of the 2021 Virtual AAN Annual Meeting, April 17–22. Go here to read the latest stories from the conference.
Among people with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) without active disease, high blood levels of the proteins neurofilament light chain, known as NfL, and glial fibrillary acidic protein, or GFAP, are associated with an increased risk of worsening disability, new research shows.
Measuring levels of certain proteins in the blood can provide important information about a person’s health. NfL is released into the blood when neurons or nerve cells are damaged or destroyed. As such, levels of NfL in the blood are indicative of injury in the nervous system. GFAP, meanwhile, is associated with the activity of star-shaped neural support cells called astrocytes, and also is a marker of nervous system injury. ....

#AANAM – Blacks, Whites Respond Differently to B-cell Targeting MS Therapies


team is providing in-depth coverage of the 2021 Virtual AAN Annual Meeting, April 17–22. Go here to read the latest stories from the conference.
Common B-cell depleting therapies, such as rituximab and Ocrevus (ocrelizumab), may result in shorter duration B-cell depleting effects in African American patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) than in white patients, a study suggests.
“While previous research has shown that this type of [into-the-vein] therapy is effective for people with those diseases, we also know that Black people tend to have more severe courses of MS,” llya Kister, MD, said in a press release. Kister, of the NYU Grossman School of Medicine in New York, is the study’s senior author and a fellow of the American Academy of Neurology. ....

Novartis' Kesimpta for Relapsing MS Approved in UK as At-home Therapy


4.6
(8)
Kesimpta (ofatumumab) has been approved in the U.K. as the first self-administered, at-home, B-cell-targeting therapy for people with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) and active disease.
More specifically, the approval includes patients with either clinically isolated syndrome, relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), or active secondary progressive MS (SPMS), who have been experiencing relapses or showing new lesions on MRI scans.
This approval by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) follows similar decisions in the E.U., the U.S., Canada, Switzerland, Singapore, Australia, Japan, Argentina, the United Arab Emirates, Albania, and India.
The U.K.’s National Institute for Health Care and Excellence (NICE) and the Scottish Medicines Consortium now will decide whether to add Kesimpta to their respective National Health Service (NHS), which would allow patients to access treatments at low or no cost. NI ....
