I'm with Harry. The mouse model is pretty much a dead dodo. We need to find out how and why MS works in humans, not mice. Until we have that information, all treatments are just shooting from the hip, hoping to hit something in the general spray of bullets. Or at most band-aids, such as we have now. My money would be on the Accelerated Cure Project, which is trying to discover just that. You can't cure something if you don't know what it is.

Even with the treatments we have now, ABCR, steroids, and chemo, the general statistic that 50% of people with RR will pass on to SP hasn't changed. And these drugs don't seem to affect PP or relapsing progressive at all. Of course the latter fact seems to suggest that PP and RP aren't in fact MS at all, but some as yet unknown disease. But that's for another discussion.
