The purpose of this study is to make laquinimod 0.6 mg available for all subjects who completed the placebo-controlled MS-LAQ-301 study according to the protocol and to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and effect on disease course of daily oral laquinimod 0.6 mg in subjects with relapsing multiple sclerosis.

Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
A treatment-emergent adverse event was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity following start of treatment and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. Severity was rated by the investigator on a scale of mild, moderate and severe, with severe= an AE which prevents normal daily activities. Relation of AE to treatment was determined by the investigator. Serious AEs (SAE) include death, a life-threatening adverse event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, OR an important medical event that jeopardized the patient and required medical intervention to prevent the previously listed serious outcomes. TEAEs associated with cancer, ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular events, and arthritis were considered to be of special interest.
Time frame: Day 1 up to 7.64 years
Participants With Potentially Clinically Significant Abnormal Vital Signs
Vital signs with potentially clinically significant abnormal results were evaluated using the following significance criteria: * Pulse rate low: \<=45 and decrease \>=30 beats/minute * Pulse rate high: \>=120 and increase \>=30 beats/minute * Systolic blood pressure low: \<=90 and decrease \>=30 mmHg * Systolic blood pressure high: \>=180 and increase \>=30 mmHg * Diastolic blood pressure low: \<=50 and decrease \>=20 mmHg * Diastolic blood pressure high: \>=100 and increase \>=20 mmHg
Time frame: Day 1 up to 7.64 years
Participants With Serum Chemistry Laboratory Tests That Were Potentially Clinically Significant (PCS) Abnormal Comparing Baseline to Any Time During the Study
Counts include two conditions: * a change from High / Non-PCS at baseline to Low PCS at any point during the study * a change from Low / Non-PCS at baseline to High PCS at any point during the study Participants whose condition was not changed from baseline or was changed to a non- PCS value are included in the population count. ALT=alanine aminotransferase ALP=alkaline phosphatase P-amylase=amylase, pancreatic AST=aspartate aminotransferase CRP=C reactive protein CK=creatine kinase CTN=creatinine FIB=fibrinogen GGT=gamma glutamyl transferase K=potassium
