Could you post it here, Chris?

According to any calculation, PML is lower than the worst case scenario predicted . . . but I am interested in what the article says anyway.

Thanks
Cherie

Cherie,

The article is too long to PM without cutting it down and it should be read in its entirety. It's easy to register with Medscape to view the entire article. It's the first medical article I've seen where Biogen has quoted PML risk numbers. I'm sure it won't stop the discussion of PML risk but at least its something public from Biogen.

Chris

Chris, you can send more than one PM. Just break up the article.

Excellent suggestion! Clearly, obvious solutions are not obvious to me at this time. Thankfully today's almost over!

By the time I got back here, it was posted on another forum already . . . so thanks anyway, Chris.

That was ridiculous, and we both know why . . . but whatever.

The article presents all the commercial usage experience PML data in a relatively clinical fashion. What's ridiculous about that? I don't necessarily agree with all the conclusions (i.e. PML cases are random with no connections/similarities) but the data presented is of value.
