How Effective Are Disease-Modifying Drugs in Delaying Progression in Relapsing-Onset MS?
Neurol 69:1498-1507, Brown,M.G.,et al, 2007
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Our estimates of disease-modifying (DMD) relative treatment effect size, in the context of �real-world� clinical practice, are similar to DMD treatment efficacy estimates in pivotal trials, though our findings attained statistical significance. DMDs, as a class, are effective in delaying Expanded Disability Status Scale progression in patients with relapsing onset definite multiple sclerosis (MS) (90%), although effectiveness is much better for relapsing-remitting MS than for secondary progressive MS groups.
