#083: ECTRIMS Special on De-escalation and discontinuation of therapies for MS – What does it mean and how can it work?

When can we consider de-escalation or even discontinuation of a high-efficient immunotherapy for MS without risking a disease worsening?

You can read the full article on my blog: https://ms-perspektive.com/83-deescalation

Hello and welcome to another summary of ECTRIMS 2024, this time on the topic of de-escalation and discontinuation of therapy. There was a scientific session on this topic with six lectures, moderated by Dr. Melinda Magyari and Prof. Bernhard Hemmer. And there were also individual posters. Except for one talk about NMOSD and MOGAD, all scientific contributions were about multiple sclerosis.

I will present all the contributions and their results, some of which are still preliminary. After all, it is a topic that probably affects most of us. Can or should I switch my therapy from a high efficacy to a lower one or even stop it altogether at some point, and when is that a safe approach?
