We report final results of SELECTED. Methods Eligible participants who completed 1–2 years of daclizumab beta treatment in SELECT/SELECTION received daclizumab beta 150 mg subcutaneously every 4 weeks for up to 6 years in SELECTED. Safety assessments were evaluated for the SELECTED treatment period; efficacy data were evaluated from first dose of daclizumab beta in SELECT/SELECTION. Results Ninety percent (410/455) of participants who completed treatment in SELECTION enrolled in SELECTED. Within SELECTED, 69% of participants received daclizumab beta for > 3 years, 39% for > 4 years, and 9% for > 5 years; 87% of participants experienced an adverse event and 26% a serious adverse event (excluding multiple sclerosis relapse). No deaths occurred. Overall, hepatic events w...

Examine efficacy of daclizumab beta versus intramuscular (IM) interferon beta-1a on measures of disability progression in patient subgroups from DECIDE. Twenty-four-week confirmed disability progression (CDP), 24-week sustained worsening on a modified Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFCS) where 3-Second Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test was replaced by Symbol Digit Modalities Test, and proportion of patients with clinically meaningful worsening in 29-Item Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale physical impact subscale (MSIS-29 PHYS) score from baseline to week 96 were examined in the overall population and subgroups defined by baseline demographic/disease characteristics. Daclizumab beta significantly reduced risk of 24-week CDP (hazard ratio (HR), 0.73; 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 0.55-0.98), risk of 24-week sustained MSFCS prog...
