Update from Irish Broker Davy - “For Elan/BIIB, the focus this week is to demonstrate that its JC virus assay is being validated successfully – indeed, prior JCV infection has now been found in 13 of the 13 PML cases investigated (it had been 11). ” Cases had to have pre-PML blood samples available to be included in this assessment.

JC Virus Antibody Assay Clinical trials at www.clinicaltrials.gov now show the trials as recruiting. No word yet from my Neuro who said she was going to participate in one of the trials.
