- EDSS score, 0-6.5, inclusive, at screening
- 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
- 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
- Immunocompromised state
- Receipt of a live-attenuated vaccine within 6 weeks prior to randomization Influenza vaccination is permitted if the inactivated vaccine formulation is administered
- 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
- Pregnant or breastfeeding, or intending to become pregnant during the study and 6 or 12 months
- Lack of peripheral venous access
- History of alcohol or other drug abuse within 12 months prior to screening
- Treatment with any investigational agent within 24 weeks prior to screening or 5 half-lives of the investigational drug (whichever is longer), or treatment with any experimental procedure for MS (e.g., treatment for chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency)
- 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
- Previous treatment with fingolimod, siponimod, ponesimod, or ozanimod within 6 weeks of baseline
- Previous treatment with interferons beta (1a or 1b), or glatiramer acetate within 2 weeks of baseline
- Previous treatment with natalizumab within 4.5 months of baseline
- Treatment with mitoxantrone within 2 years prior to baseline visit or evidence of cardiotoxicity following mitoxantrone use or a cumulative lifetime dose of more than 60 mg/m2
- Previous treatment with any other immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive medication not already listed above without appropriate washout as described in the applicable local label.
- If the washout requirements are not described in the applicable local label, then the wash out period must be 5 times the half-life of the medication. The PD effects of the previous medication must also be considered when determining the required time for washout.
- Any previous treatment with bone marrow transplantation and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
- Any previous history of transplantation or anti-rejection therapy
- Treatment with IV Ig or plasmapheresis within 12 weeks prior to randomization
- Systemic corticosteroid therapy within 4 weeks prior to screening
- Positive screening tests for active, latent, or inadequately treated hepatitis B
- Sensitivity or intolerance to any ingredient (including excipients) of ocrelizumab
- Any additional exclusionary criterion as per ocrelizumab (Ocrevus®) local label, if more stringent than the above
