Hi Dignan
Just wanted to let you know that T-cell vaccination by Sheba Medical Center is in phase three and almost complete

http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct/show/N ... 3C?order=9. There is that word again "probable MS"

Also, I was just google searching and found the following. It's old but I didn't really search to see if we have posted it before.

oops, my mistake...and woohoo! another phase 3! I hope they really are wrapping this study up by the end of 2006, that's something to look forward to in 2007. Thanks.

No problem. I share your excitement: D ...I found out accidentally which is great because I usually sit around and press the refresh button for news on new drugs.

Interesting that it was confirmed in August of 2006 that they were still "currently recruiting patients". I wonder if the study has actually started yet! I hope it has.

In fact, they also currently have a Phase I and Phase II recruiting for T-Cell Vaccine... I'm confused.

I'm confused too. Checked Sheba's website too and they are pretty light on details about the trials. The part about "still recruiting" in that phase III is discouraging though...

I emailed them to ask. Hopefully they will get back to me. I am hoping that they are slow at updating the site or that these are two different trails. Like one for RRMS and one for porbable MS.
