Treatment of Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis After 24 Doses of Natalizumab
JAMA Neurol 71:954-960, Clerico, M.,et al, 2014
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
This study provides class III evidence of an increased risk of MS activity resumption after natalizumab discontinuation. Therapy discontinuation after 24 doses in natalizumab-responding patients should be considered only if the risk of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy is high and outweighs the benefits of continuing the drug.
