pubmed:abstractText |
Four patients with progressive extensive chronic graft-versus-host disease or dose-limiting toxicity on conventional therapy (cyclophosphamide + prednisolone) were treated with a regimen of cyclosporine + prednisolone as induction therapy and cyclosporine as maintenance therapy. All 4 showed clinical improvement and 3 of 4 are alive at 9 months. The incidence of infections was not affected by this regimen, but steroid requirements were reduced.
