Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Lab values ck'ed baseline and with each treatment, and 15 mo. visit
  • Xray of Chest and sinus baseline and on 12th and last treatment
  • Clinical assessment baseline, every treatment, and 15 mo.

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Patient questionnaires completed by patients, baseline, prior to each treatment, and at 15 month vist.

Estimated Enrollment: 10
Study Start Date: December 2004
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2006
Detailed Description:

*10 consenting adults (18 or older) will receive IgIV (Gamunex 10%) monthly at a dose of 400mg/kg body weight IV at 3ml/minute. Comprehensive labs will be monitored at each visit, as well as clinical eval, plus patients will complete a questionnaire each time. There is also a 3 month follow-up visit after completion of therapy. Specific xrays will be done at the beginning and with the last treatment.
