Title: Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis With Copaxone (Glatiramer Acetate) and Albuterol
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of glatiramer acetate (Copaxone) alone compared to Copaxone plus albuterol in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

MS is thought to be an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Certain white blood cells of the immune system become abnormally active and mistakenly attack the myelin of nerve fibers. Myelin is a fatty sheath that surrounds nerve fibers and insulates the nerve like insulation around an electrical wire. Without proper myelin insulation, messages sent between the brain and other parts of the body may be confused or fail completely. Damage to myelin causes the symptoms of MS. The most common form of MS is known as relapsing-remitting (RR), where partial or total recovery occurs after attacks. Four therapies are currently approved for the treatment of MS. These therapies, however, are only moderately effective and can cause undesirable side effects. For this reason, there is a need to find new therapies that have minimal side effects and may stop the disease from getting worse.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria

Patients may be eligible for this study if they:

* Have been diagnosed with RR-MS, within 2 years of diagnosis.
* Are 18-55 years old.
* Have RR-MS with evidence of demyelination on MRI scanning of the brain.
* Have extended disability status scale (EDSS) scores between 0 and 3.5.
* Have not taken Copaxone or oral myelin.
* Have not had immunomodulating therapy for the past 3 months.
* Have not taken immunosuppressants.
* Have not had steroid treatment 1 month before entry.
* Have no evidence of active infection or cancer.

Exclusion Criteria

Patients may not be eligible for this study if they:

* Have a normal brain MRI.
* Are not willing to practice contraception (applies to women who are able to have children).
* Are pregnant or breast-feeding.
* Are currently taking any of the following drugs: beta2-adrenergic agonist or antagonist, diuretics, tricyclic antidepressants, or monoamine oxidase inhibitors.
* Have heart, blood, liver, or kidney problems.
* Have a disease that affects blood clotting or lung function.
* Have abnormalities that relate to the endocrine system.
* Have a history of alcohol or drug abuse within 6 months of enrollment.
* Have been diagnosed with primary progressive MS, in which the disease slowly worsens without periods of recovery.
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Given written/signed informed consent

* Diagnosis of MS per updated McDonald criteria, and cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan demonstrating white matter lesions attributable to MS within 5 years of screening

* Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score 0.0 to 3.0 (inclusive) at screening
* Greater than or equal to (\>=) 2 MS attacks (first episode or relapse) occurring in the 24 months prior to the date the ICF was signed, with \>=1 attack in the 12 months prior to the date the ICF was signed, with objective neurological signs confirmed by a physician, nurse practitioner, or other Genzyme-approved health-care provider and the objective signs could be identified retrospectively

Exclusion Criteria:

* Received prior therapy for MS other than corticosteroids, for example, alemtuzumab, interferons, intravenous immunoglobulin, glatiramer acetate, natalizumab, and mitoxantrone
* Exposure to azathioprine, cladribine, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine A, methotrexate, or any other immunosuppressive agent other than systemic corticosteroid treatment
* Any progressive form of MS
* History of malignancy (except basal skin cell carcinoma)
* CD4 + , CD8 + count, B cell, or absolute neutrophil count less than (\<) lower limit of normal (LLN) at screening
* Known bleeding disorder (for example, dysfibrinogenemia, factor IX deficiency, hemophilia, Von Willebrand's disease, disseminated intravascular coagulation, fibrinogen deficiency, or clotting factor deficiency)
* Significant autoimmune disease including but not limited to immune cytopenias, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, other connective tissue disorders, vasculitis, inflammatory bowel disease, severe psoriasis
* Presence of anti-thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor (TSHR) antibodies (that is, above the LLN)
* Active infection or at high risk for infection
C: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Must be 18 to 55 years old, inclusive, at the time of informed consent.
2. Must have a confirmed diagnosis of relapsing-remitting MS according to McDonald criteria #1-4 (McDonald et al, 2001; Appendix 2).
3. Must have a baseline EDSS between 0.0 and 5.0, inclusive.
4. Must have experienced at least one relapse within the 12 months prior to randomization, with a prior cranial MRI demonstrating lesion(s) consistent with MS OR show evidence of Gd-enhancing lesions of the brain on an MRI performed within the 6 weeks.
5. Male and female subjects must be willing to take appropriate measures to prevent pregnancy.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Primary progressive, secondary progressive, or progressive relapsing MS (as defined by Lublin and Reingold, 1996 \[Appendix 3\]).

4. History of abnormal laboratory results indicative of any significant cardiac, endocrinologic, hematologic, hepatic, immunologic, metabolic, urologic, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, dermatologic, psychiatric, renal, neurologic (other than MS), and/or other major disease.
5. History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
6. History of drug or alcohol abuse (as defined by the Investigator) within the 2 years prior to randomization.
7. An MS relapse that has occurred within the 50 days prior to randomization AND/OR the subject has not stabilized from a previous relapse prior to randomization.
8. Body weight \>100 kg.
9. Positive for hepatitis C antibody and/or positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) at screening.
