Default Some Tysabri news

Biogen says they will begin posting weekly to their site on any new cases of PML. Thomas Gryta of DJ reported it today. I do not have a link but I am sure it is out there since Biogen had a conference today. When I have a link I will edit this and post the link, or someone else can add it in here.

Juvenile MS treatment study abstract. This appears to require a subscription. I am SURE that someone out there with lots of time can find the full abstract if it is out there and available.

I have the full abstract/study but since it is a paid subscription I cannot cut and paste it here.

In a nutshell, three case studies of juveniles with aggressive MS who are under treatment with natalizumab and their doses and the success of the treatment, along with length of treatment and previous treatment. Good stuff. All three doing well. QOL up, no relapses, symptom improvement seen, stabilization in all three cases as in no clinical disease progression seen. Dose modified for size. Duration of treatment- 24 months, 16 months, 15 months.
