"It's official--the first two patients have been enrolled in Dr. Zamboni's Brave Dreams trial!!"
The link is in Italian, the quote is from CCSVI in MS in Facebook, and the news that the trial is underway is very welcome.
I think the neurologists in Ferrera chose to withdraw, but there are several other sites and this is a big undertaking. I hope the trial design is sufficient that it will hold up to scrutiny. And I hope the results end up being in favor of CCSVI.

Exactly. The neurologists in Ferrara chose to withdraw, and patients will be recruited from Salvi/Bologna. After, Catania starts, and then the other hospitals to follow.

Sad. Did they report their reasons for withdrawing?

The usual denialism of most neurologists, in addition to jealousy among colleagues of the same university.
