Summary
Multiple Sclerosis is a disease that may be caused by the immune system reacting against the
nervous system. It is possible, that by changing the immune system we can modify the
progression of this disease. In this study, we will try to learn whether treatment with a
bone marrow transplant (BMT) can help patients with multiple sclerosis. We will also try to
learn what the side effects are of this treatment in patients with multiple sclerosis.
