This study evaluated the healthcare resource utilization in relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis patients with highly active disease. Methods: Adult patients with $1 medical claim for MS diagnosis (G35/340) and $1 claim for a DMT were identified from a deidentified administrative claims database (between 1 Jan 2014 and 30 Sep 2019). Patients must have been continuously enrolled in a health plan (medical and pharmacy) for at least 1-year pre-and 1-year post-index (index: first MS claim). Overall and MS-related cost (both plan and patient paid) along with relapse burden were descriptively analyzed for 1-year post-index. Results: Of the 54,545 patients with $1 medical claim for MS and DMT, 11,407 were eligible for this study. Majority of patients were females (75%) and aged $40 years (77%). Approximately 30% of patients had one or more relapse during 1-year post index. The most commonly used DMTs both 1-year pre-and post-index were glatiramer acetate (41% and 28%), followed by dimethyl fumarate (19% and 26%), interferon Beta-1a (16% and 17%). Overall cost per patient during the 1-year post index was $72,718. MS-related cost per patient was 86% of overall cost
