  • a Number of patients per treatment arm necessary to perform parallel-group-designed trials with a statistical power of 80%, to detect treatment effects ranging from 0% to 50% increase in inactive patients and a 0%–50% reduction in mean enhancing-lesion volume in active patients.

  • b – Indicates percentage increase of patients developing no/zero enhancing lesions during follow-up.
