Pilot Study of Cyclophosphamide in Patients With Life-Threatening Systemic Lupus Erythematosus or Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome
 

OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the induction of durable remission in patients with life-threatening systemic lupus erythematosus or antiphospholipid antibody syndrome treated with cyclophosphamide.

II. Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients.

PROTOCOL OUTLINE:

Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV on days 1-4 and filgrastim (G-CSF) beginning on day 10 and continuing until blood counts recover.

Patients are followed monthly for 6 months, and then every 3 months thereafter.
