uin	193600
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/11/2018 answer text <p>The Department has made no such assessment. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is currently developing technology appraisal guidance on the use of ocrelizumab for treating primary progressive multiple sclerosis. The final scope for the appraisal states that 10% of patients with multiple sclerosis have the primary progressive subtype.</p><p> </p><p>Ocrelizumab has a marketing authorisation in the United Kingdom “for the treatment of adult patients with early primary progressive multiple sclerosis in terms of disease duration and level of disability, and with imaging features characteristic of inflammatory activity”. Therefore because of the scope of the marketing authorisation, not every patient with primary progressive multiple sclerosis would be eligible for treatment with ocrelizumab as they must be in the early stages of the disease and have inflammatory activity on MRI.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 23/11/2018 14:14:05 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
