“…These are most likely to appear in persons with ataxia telangiectasia, Wiskott Aldrich syndrome, severe combined immunode®ciency, or common variable immunode®ciency [24À27]. Non HodgkinÕs lymphomas have also been documented in subjects with X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP) [39], cartilage hair hypoplasia [40], Chediak-Higashi syndrome [41], Hyper IgM syndrome [42], and, recently, autoimmune lymphoproliferative disease (ALPS/ Cannale Smith syndrome) [43].…”

“…18 Affected patients suffer from recurrent infections including opportunistic infections, recurrent episodes of neutropenia and autoimmune disease, and have an increased likelihood of developing cancer. 19 Gene transfer of CD40 ligand may be an attractive therapeutic option to patients with X-HIM. However, gene transfer of CD40 ligand will require the maintenance of normal regulation of CD40 ligand gene expression.…”

“…While the clinical manifestations of X-HIM vary, most patients present with recurrent sino-pulmonary infections in the first 2 years of life. Patients with X-HIM are at an increased risk of opportunistic infections and as many as 20-40% of patients may present with Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (Levy et al, 1997). Recurrent oral ulcers and proctitis are common and are usually associated with neutropenia, autoimmune disorders and lymphomas at an early age.…”

“…Even with intravenous immunoglobulins, the long-term survival rate in XHIM is poor. Actuarial survival curves show that less than 30% of the patients are alive at 25 years of age (Levy et al, 1997). The only cure for X-HIM is bone marrow transplantation (BMT).…”
