Real-World Assessment of Quality of Life in Patients with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis Treated with Teriflunomide for Two Years: Patient-Reported Outcomes from the AURELIO Study in Greece.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a highly heterogeneous inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in a real-world clinical setting can provide detailed information about MS from the patient's perspective. PROs were used here to assess quality of life (QoL), treatment satisfaction, clinical efficacy, and safety outcomes in a Greek cohort of relapsing remitting MS (RRMS) patients treated with oral teriflunomide (14 mg/day).
