Stem Cell Therapy

Post by Daniel114 »

Can you qualify for stem cell therapy if you've tried two different MS meds but only experienced one relapse?

The best way to determine if you are eligible is to look at the specific Eligibility / Entry criteria of any specific trial you wish to participate in, as they will differ. If you are early on, you should also look into Lemtrada (ie Campath) which is an approved treatment in a number of countries.

Assuming you meant HSCT, then this URL will give a list of registered trials.
