Abstract

The therapeutic benefits of interferon-beta are limited, as some patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) do not respond to therapy. Based on their biological characteristics, non-responsive patients can be divided into three subgroups: genetic, pharmacological and pathogenetic non-responders. In order to tailor the best treatment in both newly diagnosed MS patients and those already receiving treatment, the neurologist must carefully consider the risk of treating non-responders.
