- ability to consent and a written approval
- First acute ON attack to the fit eye within 30 days before screening
- Age 18 - 55 years at screening
- EDSS ≤ 6.0
- No MS Attack except for ON in the last 30 days before screening
- No immunomodulatory therapy for at least three Months (before randomization), or
- strong immunomodulatory therapy with interferon beta or glatiramer acetate for at least 6 months
- visus in the affected eye at least 0.1
latency of Conventional VEP in the affected eye
- = 115 ms or difference> = 15 ms to the opposite side at a Study at least 4 but no more than 6 weeks after Onset of clinical symptoms
- At least 2 T2 lesions typical of MS in a previous MRI
Exclusion Criteria:

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Efficacy parameters
Decrease of latency of mVEP of the affected eye after 6 months treatment with Gilenya® vs. Extavia® compared to baseline
Secondary Outcome Measures
Efficacy parameters
Decrease in the latency of the mVEP from the affected eye at the time points 1, 3 and 12 months in comparison to baseline.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
In the MOVING study should be examined, whether early therapeutic intervention with fingolimod (Gilenya ®) after optic neuritis(ON) has a favorable visual outcome as a comparative therapie with Interferon beta-1b (Extavia®), as measured by multifocal visual evoked potentials (mVEP) after 6 month compared to baseline.
