All,
The Revimmune paper I read states "The principal investigator for the
ongoing Revimmune MS study at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine is Douglas Kerr, MD, PhD. In a follow-up of up to 2 years, most patients have shown substantial improvement and many have a complete elimination of signs of the disease."
It also states "Accentia is preparing an IND application for Revimmune for severe refractory MS, and is proposing to enter a Phase III clinical trial to support licensure under the abbreviated 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway"
I used the word clinical trial without realizing the difference between a study and a clinical trial. Is it a "study" that John Hopkins is currently conducting.

Chris,
Please allow me to introduce myself. My fiance was diagnosed with MS in August and has had two exacerbations since.
She's been on Rebif since September but the side effects keep getting worse and the efficacy is questionable at best.
We've been looking into the Revimmune treatment as an option alongside Tovaxin (we live in Houston although I am English and she is originally from Boston/New York).
I just wanted to say thank you for posting here and also to your wife for updating your journal for you if you become too ill.
Good luck mate, you deserve it.
