About this trial
In the sponsor's words
Primary Objective: To determine the efficacy of SAR441344 as measured by reduction of the number of new active brain lesions Secondary Objective: * To evaluate efficacy of SAR441344 on disease activity as assessed by other MRI measures * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of SAR441344 * To evaluate pharmacokinetics of SAR441344
