Description
Summary
This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics of ocrelizumab in the breastmilk of lactating women with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) or multiple sclerosis (MS) [in line with the locally approved indications] treated with ocrelizumab, by assessing the concentration of ocrelizumab in mature breastmilk, as well as the corresponding exposure and pharmacodynamic effects (blood B cell levels) in the infants.

related to the Mother:
- Hypersensitivity to ocrelizumab or to any of its excipients - Received last dose of ocrelizumab <3 months before the LMP or during pregnancy - Active infections (may be included once the infection is treated and is resolved; women with bilateral mastitis infection should not have samples collected until the infection is completely resolved) - Prior or current history of primary or secondary immunodeficiency, or woman in an otherwise severely immunocompromised state - Known active malignancies, or being actively monitored for recurrence of malignancy - History of breast implants, breast augmentation, breast reduction surgery or mastectomy - Prior or current history of chronic alcohol abuse or drug abuse - Positive screening tests for hepatitis B - Treatment with a DMT for CIS or MS during pregnancy and/or first weeks post-partum, with the exception of formulations of interferon-beta, glatiramer acetate or pulsed corticosteroids - Treatment with drugs known to transfer to the breastmilk and with established or potential deleterious effects for the infant - Treatment with any investigational agent within 6 months or five half-lives of the investigational drug prior to the LMP Exclusion Criteria related to the Infant: - >24 weeks of life at the time of the mother's first dose of ocrelizumab - Any abnormality that may interfere with breastfeeding or milk absorption - Active infection (may be included once the infection resolves) - Infant has any other medical condition or abnormality that, in the opinion of the investigator, could compromise the infant's ability to participate in this study, including interference with the interpretation of study results - At least one documented brief resolved unexplained event (BRUE), as defined by the 2016 Guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatrics
