    Possible Early Access to Ocrelizumab for people diagnosed with PPMS

    Genentech has a drug that if approved by the FDA will be for Progressive MS. This drug currently has Breakthrough Therapy Designation by the FDA: http://www.nationalmssociety.org/Abo...erapy-Designat

    It's called Ocrelizumab. Not yet approved, but approval is likely late this year.
    Check out this link: www.mssignup.com/
    Genentech also has an Expanded Access Program (EAP), for patients with PPMS. An EAP allows a limited group of patients, who meet specific criteria, to have access to a specific investigational medicine.
    People interested in learning more about the EAP should contact the Genentech Trial Information Support Line.
