Immunotherapy, increasing efficacy

Immunotherapy, increasing efficacy
Monoclonal antibodies have changed the evolution of many diseases, in particular in multiple sclerosis, an inflammation of the central nervous system that causes myelin to degenerate, modifying the functioning of neurological impulses to the brain. Immunotherapy can make use of various drugs, old and new. One of the most recent is Ocrealizumab which is effective in standard and more severe forms. It is a humanized monoclonal antibody designed to target CD20–positive B cells, one of the major cells responsible for myelin damage.
