Bone metastases can cause pain in patients with cancer, and 2 abstracts presented at the 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting evaluated treating this pain.

Long-term use of ozanimod may be associated with improved cognitive speed and higher rates of no evidence of disease activity among patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS), according to 2 new abstracts presented at the 33rd Annual Meeting of the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers.

Patients who switched from ozanimod HCI 0.5 mg or interferon β-1a to ozanimod HCI 1.0 mg in an open-label extension study experienced sustained reduction in their annualized relapse rate. Patients who continued on with the 1.0 mg dose also experienced a sustained reduction.
