I just read this article that I thought was worthwhile sharing with everyone.
Original article provides a summary of a clinical trial: A pilot, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study of Erythropoietin in ALS pts.
It was a 24 mo study that found potential delay in onset of motor neuron deterioration and prevented axonal degeneration. Moreover, drug can cross the intact blood-brain barrier.
Study was conducted in Milan Italy.
