Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with RRMS onset after age 50 * Patients who started their first disease-modifying therapy within 2 years of the first symptoms * Patients Treated with moderately effective disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) (teriflunomide, dimethyl fumarate or diroximel fumarate, glatiramer acetate, interferon beta, peginterferon) * Patient treated with highly effective DMARDs (fingolimod, ponesimod, natalizumab, rituximab, ocrelizumab, ofatumumab, cladribine) Exclusion Criteria: \- Patients with early progressive MS

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Time to First Clinical Inflammatory Relapse — Up to 12 months
    Compare the time to first clinical inflammatory relapse between two groups of patients who developed relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) after age 50: * Group 1 = therapeutic escalation strategy: starting with a moderately effective treatment (teriflunomide, dimethyl fumarate or diroximel fumarate, glatiramer acetate, interferon beta, peginterferon) * Group 2 = induction strategy: starting with a highly effective treatment (fingolimod, ponesimod, natalizumab, rituximab, ocrelizumab, ofatumumab, cladribine)
