KAIROS was a prospective, multicenter, non-interventional study (NIS) in Germany. Prospective, primary data was collected via questionnaires and an electronic case report form (eCRF) over a period of one year (max. 1.5 years) of treatment. Additionally, medical history of participants was collected including disease duration, EDSS, MRI parameters and relapses.
The decision for ofatumumab as routine medical treatment must have been taken independently of and prior to the study start. During the observation phase of the study, data was collected according to standard of care as recommended by KKNMS (Competence Network Multiple Sclerosis in Germany).
The prospective observational period per patient was up to approx. one year from the time of consent (1 year ± 2 months visit window + potentially 6 months follow-up to confirm disability worsening in patients who showed increase in EDSS within 6 months prior to EOS). The observational period was not dictated by the protocol. The follow-up documentation took place at a frequency defined as per investigator's discretion. The diagnostic or monitoring procedures were only those ordinarily applied to the therapeutic strategy and to routine clinical care, could be performed as telemedicine visits and took place as per investigator's discretion.

| Change on Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale 29 (MSIS-29) as compared to baseline in general and depending on reasons for treatment switch | MSIS-29 is a 29-item, self administered questionnaire that includes two domains, physical and psychological. Responses are captured on a 4-point scale ranging from "not at all" (1) to "extremely" (4), where higher scores reflect greater impact on day-to-day life. The questions in the scale ask the subjects for their views about the impact of MS on their day to-day life during the past 2 weeks. Analysis will be done depending on the reasons for treatment switch. | Baseline, month 6, month 12 |
| Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) 1.4 as compared to baseline in general and depending on reasons for treatment switch | The TSQM Version 1.4 comprises 14 items across four domains focusing on effectiveness (3 items), side effects (5 items), convenience (3 items), and global satisfaction (3 items) of the medication over the previous 2-3 weeks, or since the subject´s last use. With the exception of item 4 (presence of side effects; yes or no), all items have 5 or 7 responses, scored from 1 (least satisfied) to 5 or 7 (most satisfied). 7-item scales had a non-neutral midpoint, such that there were more positive response options than negative response options, to allow precise information to be obtained at the upper end of the score distribution. Item scores are summarized to give four domain scores, which are in turn transformed to a scale of 0 -100. | Baseline, month 6, month 12 |
| Fatigue Scale for Motor and Cognitive Functions (FSMC) compared to baseline in general and depending on reasons for treatment switch | FSMC is a 20 item scale developed as a measure of cognitive and motor fatigue for people with Multiple Sclerosis. Each item is rated on a scale from 1-5 (1:"does not apply", 5: "applies completely"). Thus, a maximum of 100 points for the total scale can be achieved. A patient who has neither motor nor cognitive fatigue would thus achieve a score of 20 for the total scale. | Baseline, month 6, month 12 |
| Percentage of patients with no clinical evidence of disease activity (NEDA) | NEDA is defined by no confirmed MS relapse, no new or enlarging T2 lesions, no Gadolinium-positive T1 lesions, and no six-month confirmed disability worsening | Baseline, month 6, month 12 |
| Proportion of patients demonstrating the individual NEDA-3 components | The individual NEDA-3 components are:
| Baseline, month 12 |
| The proportion of subjects discontinuing treatment due to insufficient effectiveness (lack of effectiveness) or tolerability/safety reasons | The proportion of subjects discontinuing treatment due to insufficient effectiveness or tolerability/safety reasons | 12 months |
| Number of participants with injection related AEs | injection site reaction AEs vs. injection systemic reaction AEs | 12 months |
