| Summary: | Several recently completed clinical trials are reported to demonstrate beneficial treatment with immunosuppressive therapy in multiple sclerosis (MS). The enthusiasm generated by these reports may motivate investigators to further such trials even in the face of the appreciable expense, time and risk involved. Of at least equal concern, clinicians are proceeding to treat individual MS patients without adequate evaluation of the claims. Critical appraisals of available data and proposals for future therapeutic endeavors therefore seem in order and are made in this paper. |
