Abstract

A phase 1, randomized, placebo-controlled, five-level dose escalation safety and tolerability and pharmacokinetic study of a single IV dose of natalizumab was performed. Doses of 0.03 to 3.0 mg/kg natalizumab or placebo were studied in 28 stable relapsing-remitting or secondary-progressive MS. All doses were safe and well tolerated in MS. Serum concentrations of natalizumab are detectable for 3 to 8 weeks after a single 1- or 3-mg/kg IV dose and justify controlled efficacy studies.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 20. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 August 2025.
All research outputs
#2,366,567
of 33,849,731 outputs
Outputs from Neurology
#4,239
of 25,989 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#1,689
of 51,706 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Neurology
#9
of 123 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 33,849,731 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 25,989 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 23.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 51,706 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 123 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
