Efficacy of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin in severe aplastic anemia.
BACKGROUND A combination of horse anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclosporine produces responses in 60-70% of patients with severe aplastic anemia. We performed a phase II study of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclosporine as first-line therapy for severe aplastic anemia. DESIGN AND METHODS Twenty patients with severe aplastic anemia treated with rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin were compare...
متن کاملParoxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria clones in severe aplastic anemia patients treated with horse anti-thymocyte globulin plus cyclosporine.
BACKGROUND Clones of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor protein-deficient cells are characteristic in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and are present in about 40-50% of patients with severe aplastic anemia. Flow cytometry has allowed for sensitive and precise measurement of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor protein-deficient red blood cells and neutrophils in severe aplastic anemia. DE...
متن کامل[Efficacy of anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclosporin A combined therapy in aplastic anemia complicated with limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis].
We reported here on a case of limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) with aplastic anemia treated by anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclosporin A. The use of this therapy resulted not only in marrow recovery but also in resolution of the skin sclerosis. A 68 year-old woman was diagnosed as lcSSc accompanied by Hashimoto's thyroiditis and primary biliary cirrhosis. Treatment by D-penicillamin...
متن کاملRelationship between post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder and Anti-Thymocyte Globulin or Anti-Lymphocyte Globulin
Abstract Background: Lymphoproliferative disorders are among the most serious and potentially fatal complications of chronic immunosuppression in kidney transplant recipients. The principle risk factors for development of PTLD are the degree of overall immunosuppression and the EBV serostatus of the recipient. In this study, the risk of PTLD in kidney transplant recipients who received Anti- L...
متن کاملA comparison of Jurkat cell-reactive anti-T lymphocyte globulin and fetal anti-thymocyte globulin preparations in the treatment of aplastic anemia.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the success rate and effects on survival of different anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) preparations in patients diagnosed with aplastic anemia. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Of the total 24 patients included in the study, 12 were male and 12 female with a median age of 44 years (range 16-72). Nine patients received Lymphoglobulin®, 7 Thymoglobulin® and A...
