My physician provided me two options for treatment Tysbri and Campath. One FDA approved and the other not. One covered by ins and the other possibly not. When I asked my physician which one he would choose for his family member if they were in my shoes he chose Campath.
Are there any reports compairing Campath and Tysbri?

Fighter, I haven't seen a report comparing campath and tysabri. In case it's any help, there are links to clinical trial results for both drugs:

Tysabri: http://www.thisisms.com/ftopict-1100.html

Campath: http://www.genzyme.com/corp/investors/G ... 050207.asp
