| From PubMed (August 18, 2024)--"Siponimod following alemtuzumab | |
| for secondary progressive multiple sclerosis: Investigating | |
| sequential therapy--a case series": | |
| https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39151236/ | |
| [quote]The prescription of subsequent therapies following | |
| Alemtuzumab, as mandated by label guidance for a treatment-free | |
| period of at least 5 years, presents a complex challenge, | |
| particularly if there is concurrent conversion to secondary | |
| progressive disease course. [/quote] | |
| That 5-year wait before starting another MS treatment after | |
| stopping alemtuzumab would probably be a drawback for many | |
| patients. | |
