Is this MY ewizabeth from Chicago? On Tysabri?
NOT a dumb question. Cytoxan/Cyclophosphamide has been around since around 1957 and used many ways on many things, including long term suppression of MS. With that history it's hard to keep things straight.
In it's use as a long term suppressant in MS it didn't provide stellar results and you can find papers to that effect. It's use in AHSCT hasn't provided stellar results, and you can find papers to that effect.
Specific to your question, yes it's Cytoxan, high dose, short term without stem cell replacement.
