TECFIDERA® (Dimethyl Fumarate) Data Reinforce Strong, Sustained Efficacy for Newly-Diagnosed MS Patients

Biogen (NASDAQ: BIIB) today announced new data that continue to support TECFIDERA® (dimethyl fumarate) as an effective, long-term treatment for people who are living with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). Data show TECFIDERA significantly reduced relapses and disability progression in newly-diagnosed relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) patients who had highly active disease. Additional data indicate TECFIDERA showed strong and sustained efficacy over five years in RRMS patients who were previously treated with an interferon (interferon beta-1a/b [IFN]) or glatiramer acetate (GA). These results will be presented at the 67th American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.
