Statement of Need

Despite decades of progress in the management of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), notable challenges remain. With a growing armamentarium of treatment options, clinicians are faced with the need to understand the full range of risk-benefit profiles so as to select the most appropriate therapy based on individual patient characteristics. Of particular concern are the large numbers of patients who fail to respond adequately to initial treatment with a disease-modifying therapy (DMT). Prompt recognition of such patients is crucial to prevent the accumulation of disability and delay disease progression. Clinicians must have the requisite knowledge to identify clinical and MRI findings suggestive of a suboptimal response that necessitates switching to another treatment strategy. The process of deciding which DMT should be chosen when switching therapy mandates consideration of the mode of actions, efficacy and safety, and individual patient factors. Clinicians must be competent in addressing these issues if the best possible outcomes are to be achieved. The potential advent of additional treatments also highlights the need for clinicians to stay up to date on developments that may impact the management of RRMS in the future.
