This satellite symposium explores the concurrent relapsing and progressive biology of MS across the periphery and CNS. The program emphasizes the potential of BTK inhibition to address unmet needs through dual-pathway targeting. Key topics include a critical appraisal of trial data, variations in study methodologies, and the integration of emerging progression markers.
