| BackgroundLiver enzyme elevation can occur as an adverse effect of fingolimod in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). Cladribine has shown comparable efficacy with a more favorable safety profile in terms of hepatotoxicity risk. However, data regarding the transition from fingolimod to cladribine in patients with elevated transaminase levels remain limited.ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and short-term efficacy of cladribine in pwMS discontinuing fingolimod due to elevated liver enzyme levels.MethodsThis retrospective, multicenter study included 45 pwMS who transitioned from fingolimod to cladribine owing to AST/ALT >3 × upper limits. Clinical data, liver function tests, and disease activity parameters were collected at predefined time points, with disease activity evaluated by relapse and radiological findings (new/enlarging T2 or gadolinium-enhancing lesions).ResultsAST and ALT levels normalized and … |
