Oral fingolimod has similar effectiveness as conventional injectable DMAs in reducing the risk of experiencing the composite endpoint (relapse or DMA treatment switch). In addition, when assessed independently, oral fingolimod showed no difference in reducing the time to relapse or DMA treatment switch compared to injectable DMAs.
