We've been given a printout from the pspa website by our neurologist regarding an upcoming trial. I'm pretty sure it's the one in the above link.

Here's the link to the website.

My husband's neurologist mentioned it and he is going to see if he qualifies, Fingers crossed.

Our neuro spoke about this trial months ago. As far as I am aware, you need to be able to stand and walk 5 steps unaided. Im a bit gutted they will be using a placebo also.

Correction - our neurologist gave us the letter/thing, not the pspa.

But it is from their website.

The trial involves a placebo, however, after the 52 week trial, everyone involved gets the antibody. So even if you get the placebo, you still get the antibody after the trial ends.

Not what you're looking for?
