EnglishDisease modifying therapy have changed the natural evolution of multiple sclerosis (MS), with efficacy demonstrated in randomized clinical trials. Standard-of-care effectiveness is needed to complement clinical trial data and highlight outcomes in real-world practice, but comparing prospective patients with historical cohorts likely introduces biases. To address these potential biases, assigning a patient with a score that expresses his/her disease prognosis before starting a therapy may make it possible to evaluate the unbiased ability of the therapy to modify disease natural history. Thus, we aimed at analyzing the effectiveness of intramuscular interferon-β1a (im IFN-β1a) matching by BREMSO score (Bayesian Risk Estimate for Multiple Sclerosis at Onset) a prospective real-world cohort of treated patients with a historical cohort of untreated patients.
