Viral load following therapy for established EBV-LPD.
EBV load in 2 recipients of a TCD allo-SCT with established EBV-LPD prior to planned preemptive therapy. EBV-LPD was diagnosed on lymph node biopsies in both patients at the day of first rituximab infusion. Both patients developed a sustained complete response after 2 successive infusions of rituximab combined with dose reduction of cyclosporin (↓ denotes diagnosis of EBV-LPD; asterisk indicates single infusion of 375 mg/m2 rituximab).
