The dex------------------ drug did not work. I was in Mass General Hospital when the results of the clinical trial became available, and it didn't work. Too bad.

Sad news for a drug that seemed to hold so much promise.

Eileen, I'm curious. How did you find out about the results at Mass General? Did you see a report on the clinical trial, or a press release, or some other way?

Just received my Dexpramipexole "wrap--up" visit at Emory this AM. Guess what, I was on the placebo, much to my surprise. - - - and all the while I believed I was on the real stuff since my progression has been fairly slow for the past year (thank heaven). Anyway, let's bring on the next trial study ! ! God bless all.

My husband was on the real deal.. No big deal, huh?
