Hey all! Happy new year everyone! I get right down to the core in my post. Ocrevus will soon probably be approved by to FDA. But how will FDA view the risks with this heavily immunosupressive agent ?

Ocrelizumab (Ocrevus) safety footprints create real worries
FOR SOME REASON, many tends to underestimate the risks with Ocrelizumab ( Ocrevus ) - it is far to much blue sky (sorry) opinions aired about this, to my view, risky MS-agent. APART FROM ALL these cancer cases in the ORATORIO / PPMS trial (2.3% vs 0.8%) and also worrying 6 cases of breast cancer vs ...

Re: Ocrelizumab (Ocrevus) not the answer in PPMS - far from
Thanks for comment David1949. Yes true, Ocrelizumab is an heavy immune suppressant - or heavy artillery. Now, to completely deplete all the CD-20 B cells will not be good in the long run. And as Professor Dr Mark Freedman, Neurologist in Ottawa, says in the video, it will be risky. And the Ocrelizum...

Ocrelizumab (Ocrevus) not the answer in PPMS - far from it.
Hi! I am a new member at this page. But I have been reading this page for several years.
