Read the CBS News report, “Treating MS Symptoms With Stem Cells: Promising Northwestern University Trial Uses Patient’s Own Stem Cells To Treat Symptoms Of Multiple Sclerosis”
Today, the CBS News Early Show presented an interview with Edwin McClure, a young MS patient, who participated in a Northwestern University trail which involved using a patient’s own stem cells and chemotherapy. McClure’s family says he is “cured”. The researchers describe the trial as a treatment of symptoms. Either way, the results presented look very promising. This is definitely a study to keep our eyes on.
Here’s a link to information about the study on the ClinicalTrials.gov website: http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00273364
