Roche's experimental multiple sclerosis drug fenebrutinib has met its main goal in a late-stage trial for primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS). The Phase III study showed a 12% reduction in the risk of worsening disability compared to Roche's Ocrevus, the only approved treatment for PPMS. The drug is the first in over a decade to demonstrate a reduction in disability progression in PPMS. Roche plans to seek regulatory approval after additional Phase III data from a relapsing MS trial, expected in early 2026.
