[CIS-PAGID] CVID + LIP

[Church, Joseph]

Colleagues:

 

A 60yo female with long term CVID has had lymphoid interstitial
pneumonitis that was biopsy documented in 2005.

 

She had developed worsening of symptoms over the past 6 months.

 

She is trying to avoid increasing her prednisone, currently at 10mg/d,
because of coronary artery disease and hypertension; she could not
tolerate CellCept.

 

Has anyone tried Rituximab in this setting?
