Background: Clinical trials comparing the efficacy of ocrelizumab (OCR) with other disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) other than interferon (IFN) β-1a in relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) are lacking. Objectives. To compare the treatment effect of OCR vs six DMTs’ (IFN β-1a, glatiramer acetate, fingolimod, dimethyl fumarate, teriflunomide, natalizumab) treatment pathways used in clinical practice by combining clinical trial and real-world data. Methods: Patient-level data from OPERA trials and open-label extension phase, and from the German NeuroTransData (NTD) MS registry, were used to build 1:1 propensity score-matched (PSM) cohorts controlling for seven baseline covariates, including brain imaging activity. Efficacy outcomes were time to first relapse and time to 24-week confirmed disability progression over 5.5 years of follow-up. Intention-to-treat analysis using all outcome data irrespective of treatment switch was applied. Results: The analyses included 611 OPERA patients and 7141 NTD patients. We built 12 paired-matched cohorts (six for each outcome, two for each DMT) to compare efficacy of OCR in OPERA with each DMT treatment pathway in NTD. Post-matching, baseline covariates and PS were well balanced (standardized mean difference <.2 for all cohorts). Over 5.5 years, patients treated with OCR showed a statistically significant reduction in the risk of relapse (hazard ratios [HRs] .30 to .54) and disability progression (HRs .51 to .67) compared with all index therapies and their treatment switching pathways in NTD. Treatment switch and/or discontinuation occurred frequently in NTD cohorts. Conclusion: OCR demonstrates superiority in controlling relapses and disability progression in RMS compared with real-world treatment pathways over a 5.5-year period. These analyses suggest that high-efficacy DMTs and high treatment persistence are critical to achieve greatest clinical benefit in RMS.
