Multiple Sclerosis

The purpose of this study is to determine if the combined use of interferon beta 1-a weekly and glatiramer acetate daily as initial treatment for patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis will help reduce relapse rate when compared to either agent alone.

Eligible patients will be required to visit their local clinic every three months over a three-year period -- 15 scheduled visits. All study-related visits and investigational drug therapies are provided at no cost.

Research sites are located throughout the United States.
