| Change From Baseline in Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54 (MSQoL-54) Score at Week 24 | The MSQOL-54 is a multidimensional health-related quality of life measure that combines both generic and MS-specific items into a single instrument. MSQoL-54 is a 54 item questionnaire which covers 12 sub-scales along with two summary scores, and two additional single-item measures. The 12 sub-scales are: physical function, role limitations-physical, role limitations-emotional, pain, emotional well-being, energy, health perceptions, social function, cognitive function, health distress, overall quality of life, and sexual function. The 2 summary scores are the physical health composite summary and the mental health composite summary. The 2 additional single item measures are satisfaction with sexual function and change in health. Each of the 12 sub-scale scores, the 2 summary scores and 2 single item measures were to be converted into an overall Total Score ranging from 0-100, where higher scores indicated better health status. | Baseline, Week 24 |
