Today, there is also AHSCT.

There are already clinics where they basically remove your immune system and give you a new one. If you don’t die in the process, you are likely to be cured of MS.

(Any existing damage will remain.)

Currently this is reserved for the most quickly progressing cases but if we can make this safer and cheaper, it might in future be applied as an early stage cure, so people can go on to live healthy lives.

That being said, Astra Zenecas approach does seem much safer, if it’s proven to be effective!
