Title: Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Ranging Study to Determine the Safety and Efficacy of Daclizumab HYP (DAC HYP) as a Monotherapy Treatment in Subjects With Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis
Brief Summary: The primary objective of this study is to determine whether DAC HYP, when compared to placebo, is effective in reducing the rate of relapses between baseline and Week 52. The secondary objectives are to determine whether DAC HYP is effective in reducing the number of new gadolinium (Gd)-enhancing lesions, reducing the number of new or newly-enlarging T2 hyperintense lesions, reducing the proportion of participants with relapses, and improving quality of life.

NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Male or female age 18 to 55 years, inclusive.
* Diagnosis of MS by McDonald criteria.
* EDSS \<7.0.
* On stable IFN-beta regimen for at least 6 months.
* The occurrence of either of the following within 9 months prior to screening: ≥1 MS relapse OR A qualifying MRI, defined as an MRI that showed at least one confirmed Gd-CEL of the brain or spinal cord, was performed independently of the study while the patient was on a stable IFN-beta regimen, and is deemed acceptable by the central reader.
* For females, women of non-childbearing potential or women of childbearing potential who provide a negative serum pregnancy test at screen and within 24 hours of first dose of study drug, and who agree to use effective contraception during the Treatment and Follow-up periods of the study.
* Willing and able to comply with the protocol, provision of informed consent in accordance with institutional and regulatory guidelines, and, for US sites only, authorization to use protected health information.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Pregnant or breast-feeding woman.
* Non-ambulatory patient.
* Clinically significant abnormality on screening ECG.
* Malignancy within the past 5 years, except for adequately treated non-melanoma skin carcinoma or in situ carcinoma of the cervix.
* History of HIV infection, positive serology for HBV (hepatitis B virus) or HCV (hepatitis C virus).
* Varicella (VZV) or herpes zoster virus infection, or any severe viral infection, within 6 weeks before screening or exposure to VZV within 21 days of screening.
* Abnormal hematology, as defined by the following laboratory values: \*Hemoglobin ≤8.5 g/dL, \*Lymphocytes ≤1.0 x 10\^9/L, \*Platelets ≤100 x 10\^9/L, \*Neutrophils ≤1.5 x 10\^9/L.
* Significant organ dysfunction, including but not limited to cardiac, renal, liver, non-MS related CNS, pulmonary, vascular, gastrointestinal, endocrine, or metabolic dysfunction, or other disease or condition, which in the opinion of the PI (principal investigator) would make the patient an unsuitable candidate for the study.
