摘要
Seventeen patients with aplastic anaemia were treated with recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) for 14 d. Nonresponding patients were then treated with anti-human thymocyte globulin (ATG), methylprednisolone and oxymetholone. Side-effects of rhGM-CSF included fever, nausea and vomiting, diarrhoea, bone pain, headache and chills. Two patients had sustained trilineage haemopoietic recovery after receiving only rhGM-CSF. Of 11 patients who received immunosuppressive therapy, there was one complete response, two partial responses. one minimal response, and seven nonresponses. Actuarial survival at 2 years is 64%. Early administration of rhGM-CSF had no apparent effect on subsequent response to immunosuppressive therapy.
