The clinical and radiologic impact of natalizumab (Tysabri) as therapy for multiple sclerosis (MS) is assessed. On the basis of Class I evidence, natalizumab has been demonstrated to reduce measures of disease activity and to improve measures of disease severity in patients with relapsingremitting (RR) MS (Level A). The relative efficacy of natalizumab compared to current diseasemodifying thera...
