jgb,
If I may be so bold, I'd like to suggest that you modify your approach to this condition. I suggest that your priority should be defeating this disease, not what kind of treatment would be preferable.
This is not a disease that you want to use half-measures, or "good enough for Government work" approach. For this, you want to bring every weapon in the armory to the very first battle; because (and I don't want to alarm you) if you don't decisively get it the first time, you may not get another chance to beat it decisively.
Good luck to you,
Bart
