About the study
Orelabrutinib is a CNS-penetrable BTK inhibitor. This is a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orelabrutinib compared with placebo in patients with non-active Secondary Progress MS. Patients will be treated for approximately 24 to 60 months, with a minimum treatment duration of 12 months. The study will enroll approximately 990 subjects in a 2:1 randomization (orelabrutinib: placebo), globally.
