(Abst.) Efficacy of rituximab in refractory RRMS
on:
#1

This French study concerns a group of RRMS patients who had continued to progress in spite of taking natalizumab (Tysabri), mitoxantrone (Novantrone) or fingolimod (Gilenya)  and who were given rituximab (Rituxan).

From PubMed, May 4, 2018:


This study provides level IV evidence that rituximab reduces clinical and MRI disease activity in patients with active RRMS despite immunosuppressive DMT.
