Sclérose en plaques: au-delà des traitements de première ligne [Multiple sclerosis: beyong first line therapies].

We are currently experiencing a key period in the management of patients with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis. The application of new criteria allows early diagnosis, thus at a stage when the available immune treatments are the most likely to show a good efficacy. The therapeutic offer is expanding but its complexity too. It is thus important, for a given patient, to assess as precisely as possible the degree of severity of his/her disease, in order to give the drug with the optimal risk/benefit ratio.
