Impact of drug diversity on treatment effectiveness in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) in Germany between 2010 and 2018: real-world data from the German NeuroTransData multiple sclerosis registry.

Sparked by the availability of new mainly oral DMTs, RRMS treatment effectiveness improved clinically meaningful between 2010 and 2018. As similar effects were seen for injectable and oral DMTs more than for infusions, a better personalised treatment allocation in many patients is likely. These results indicate that there is an overall beneficial effect for the whole patient with MS population as a result of the greater selection of available DMTs, a benefit beyond the head-to-head comparative efficacy, resulting from an increased probability and readiness to individualise MS therapy.
