  • 1. Definite MS as determined by the McDonald criteria (Ann Neurol, July 2001) with a relapsing remitting disease course.
  • 2. Aged 18 to 55.

  • 4. EDSS 0 - 5.5 (able to walk at least 100m without aid).
  • 5. Disease duration less than 5 years from onset (if used later in the disease may not prevent progression).
