This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Note there's nothing in here about excluding former lab rats... overall, positive but definitely close to the chest.

Jane,

It is indeed encouraging to be making progress toward a clinical study. Opexa is anxious to be in clinical trials again. We are working hard to that end. Currently I can’t report any specific details with regard to the study design we will be conducting. When we open the study we expect to publish information via press release, web site and www.clinicaltrials.gov .

Best wishes for good health,
Jaye

Well hi Bob! It's been forever. I just found out today that my ONE injection in the Tovaxin trial is still ruining my life. No trial will accept me even after all this time. The latest seems to be the anti-lingo trial in Denver. So, I thought I would drop by and see what's up.....doesn't look like I've missed much.
Be Well,
Lars

Bob,
I was in the placebo group for the study year, joined the open label extension, got 1 shot and when I got home I received the "no need to come back" message. What I have learned is that 1 trial pretty much excludes you from all others. I tried to get into the Cladribine trial 2 years ago....no deal. The good news on this front is that they are going to take me in the anti-lingo trial! They talked to my Tovaxin Doc and I think they might be lacking documentation on my one injection! Maybe I got more placebo (that's a joke Bob)??? A bit concerned by this one, they actually pay you to be in it and still can't fill the trial........... recommended by some friends and very smart people at Rocky Mountain MS. I have really tried to move to a place that doesn't revolve around MS but have found myself on a Board of Directors for my local group. Tons of fundraising, booking speakers, individual help etc. etc. etc., so I try to disengage when I can but I will try to check in from time to time.
Be Well,
Lars
