I'm in the middle of reading some of the scientific stuff on this drug. There's some scary stuff going on with it. It's probably only going to be used for the worst cases.
There's been 8 deaths associated with it in the trials, and YES, there is PML associated with it.
I'd like to hear from the folks who are in the trials or on it outside of the trials. Anyone here yet?
Like Tysabri, it has been noted that there is an increase in brain volume. It's not noted yet whether the Campath volume increase is due to swelling or actual repair.
