Idos, is it reasonable to hope that there will be better risk management as we get more cases? I'm pretty sure only one of the PML's was a "clean" patient. All the others had their immune systems pretty well beat up in advance of T administration. I'm thinking more experience may well lead to better screening of potential patients. Could it turn out that the risk of PML is extremely low in clean patients, resulting in a shift to first line use instead of "rescue" use? I'm also hoping that more experience will generate better treatment, even to the extent that a PML case may not be substantially worse than a few major MS relapses. Am I far off base here? tia fred hayes
