-Caveat Lector-
This is an awful manipulation by a drug company and a
"scientist" for profit. Especially this:

Are There Industry Links?
Here is the second red flag: Dr. Khan's publicity
campaign is funded by the owner of the drug that
benefits most from his conclusions. Despite the fact
that Khan's study has not been subjected to serious
scientific review or published, Khan acknowledged in
one of the few articles reporting on the study that he
received from Teva Marion Pharmaceuticals
(manufacturers of Copaxone®) to publicize the report.
He stated that Teva Marion "put him in touch" with its
public relations firm to prepare a press release and
video (The Wall Street Journal, October 14, 1999).
As a result, Khan embarked on a campaign to publicize
his findings. According to Khan, this effort was
supported by the Wayne State University Neuroscience
Program. Yet, Teva Marion Pharmaceuticals, the makers
of Copaxone®, provided money (in the form of an
"unrestricted" educational grant) and other support to
package Khan's poster into a series of press releases
and media events. As a result, discussion of this
study is not occurring within the scientific/medical
community; rather it is Khan's own efforts to provide
informational talks and seminars that keep the study
alive. It appears to be the case that incomplete
information is being provided to both physicians and
patients through Khan's over-interpretation of the
data from his one small, incomplete study.
