Summary

The primary objective was to demonstrate the effect of teriflunomide (HMR1726) (14 milligram per day \[mg/day\] and 7 mg/day), in comparison to placebo, for reducing conversion of participants presenting with their first clinical episode consistent with multiple sclerosis (MS) to clinically definite multiple sclerosis (CDMS).

The secondary objectives were:

* To demonstrate the effect of teriflunomide, in comparison to placebo, on:

* Reducing conversion to definite multiple sclerosis (DMS)
* Reducing annualized relapse rate (ARR)
* Reducing disease activity/progression as measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
* Reducing accumulation of disability for at least 12 weeks as measured by the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS)
* Proportion of disability-free participants as assessed by the EDSS
* Reducing participant-reported fatigue
* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of teriflunomide
* To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of teriflunomide
* Optional pharmacogenomic testing aimed at assessing the association between the main enzyme systems of teriflunomide metabolism and hepatic safety, and other potential associations between gene variations and clinical outcomes
