A member asked:
When will bip be available to rheumatoid arthritis patients?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hopefully soon: Binding immunoglobulin protein has been given to the first human trials at Guys Hospital , London. It helped rheumatoid arthritis without serious side effects. It is very low in the joints of patients with R.A. It will take larger numbers of patients in other centers and then will need F.D.A. approval for the U.S.. Probably several years away. Looks promising.
