About this trial
In the sponsor's words
The purpose of this extension trial was to further evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral cladribine in subjects who have previously completed treatment within Trial 25643 (CLARITY). This trial also explored clinical benefit of prolonged 192-week versus 96-week treatment.
