VERY SAD NEWS in regards to the Drug dexpramipexole BIOGEN Trial for ALS patients, I was hoping as many others did that this drug could become Drug # 2 for ALS patient's, now we are back to just one drug RILUTEK which is usually given in the last months of life to help with breathing, so it is back to the drawing board with hopes still pinned on other Drug Trials.
