Novartis just released this. I haven’t read it carefully yet but it does say they submitted Fingolimod’s FDA and EMEA applications in December.

Novartis International AG (CH) - Novartis oral MS therapy FTY720 shows reduced risk of confirmed disability progression as published in New England Journal of Medicine

My specialist ran a trial for Fingolimod. She said it was better for RRMS and that they would be conducting a trial for the PPMS/SPMS? version later this year.
