For existing patients this may seem like "far too little, far too late," but this could be be revolutionary to people that come after us. This may be a 2nd tool combined with the MS vaccine that the University of Baylor is working on that may stop the onset of MS.
Blocking a specific protein with a little-known, experimental drug restored balance in the immune systems of lab mice, preventing them from developing multiple sclerosis, researchers at San Francisco's Gladstone Institutes found.

Scientists from the Gladstone Institutes have discovered a way to prevent the development of multiple sclerosis (MS) in mice. Using a drug that blocks the production of a certain type of immune cell linked to inflammation and autoimmunity, the researchers successfully protected against the onset of MS in an animal model of the disease.
