alemtuzumab results

I thought these results were so good they deserved to be posted in the main forum. I guess the only kicker are the side effects that comealong with the treatment!

I went in for my monthly blood draw for Campath and was told by my research coordinator that a protocol update will now allow our study doctors access to patient MRI's done for the study. It makes me feel that the results of campath are good enough that they have less to hide and want the doctors to have as much info as possible when deciding whether a clinical trial participant is in need of another round of treatment.

I am not advocating for the big drug companies but I'm leaning toward the idea that this treatment might rank up there as a treatment option with better disease course outcomes than what the CRABs can give. I'm not sure how it'll compare to Tysabri but it appears it will blow the CRABs out of the water.
