Has anyone heard of this? Larger trials needed but they achieved remission in 25% of those who took part. I thought it was very interesting.

It sounds interesting but I guess you would have to stop existing drugs to test something like that and I wouldn't fancy that.

Yes I think it’s so far been tested on people who have failed to respond well to existing drugs
