Effect of intensive granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis in patients with ulcerative colitis positive for cytomegalovirus.
BACKGROUND AND AIM Cytomegalovirus (CMV) exacerbates ulcerative colitis (UC) refractory to immunosuppressive therapies. The conditions under which CMV reactivation occurs in patients with UC, however, is unclear. In addition, the diagnostic and treatment strategies for UC positive for CMV have not been established. Granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis (GMAA) is natural biological thera...
متن کاملAdvantages of fecal lactoferrin measurement during granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis therapy in ulcerative colitis.
BACKGROUND Fecal lactoferrin has been introduced as a useful tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of this study was to assess if fecal lactoferrin can be employed to predict or estimate the effect of granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis (GMA) in ulcerative colitis (UC). METHODS This was a prospective study involving 21 patients with UC. P...
متن کاملCombination Therapy With Adalimumab Plus Intensive Granulocyte and Monocyte Adsorptive Apheresis in Patients With Refractory Ulcerative Colitis
BACKGROUND The efficacy and safety of combination therapy with adalimumab (ADA) plus intensive granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis (GMA) (two sessions per week) for the treatment of refractory ulcerative colitis (UC) have not been previously evaluated. METHODS This retrospective study evaluated the 10-week efficacy of combination therapy with ADA plus intensive GMA on refractory UC ...
متن کاملIs Adsorptive Granulocyte and Monocyte Apheresis Effective as an Alternative Treatment Option in Patients with Ulcerative Colitis?
Although more than one-third of patients with active ulcer-ative colitis (UC) are treated successfully using 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) as the first-line therapy, other agents such as steroids, immunosuppressants, or biologics may be used in untreated patients. 1,2 Even, in the era of biologis, approximately 25% patients remain in clinical remission and off steroids during the follow-up afte...
متن کاملAdsorptive Granulocyte and Monocyte Apheresis in the Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis: The First Multicenter Study in China
Background/Aims Patients with active ulcerative colitis (UC) have elevated levels of activated myeloid-derived leukocytes as a source of inflammatory cytokines. The selective depletion of these leukocytes by adsorptive granulocyte/monocyte apheresis (GMA) with an Adacolumn should alleviate inflammation, promote remission and enhance drug efficacy. However, studies have reported contrasting effi...
