As a preliminary trial, GCAP was used to taper the dose of steroids in 4 pediatric patients with&nbsp;ulcerative colitis. M<strong>ethods:<\/strong>&nbsp;Three males and 1 female ranging from 11 to 17 years old were treated with GCAP once per week for 5 consecutive weeks\/course. The ages of patients at clinical onset ranged from 8 to 12 years and the length of time from the clinical onset to GCAP treatment ranged from 28 to 58 months (median, 38.5 months). <strong>Results:<\/strong>&nbsp;In 2 patients, symptoms and signs indicating disease activity improved after 2 courses of GCAP. Laboratory data and endoscopic findings also improved after treatment and the clinical efficacy was judged to be excellent in these patients. In 1 patient, GCAP improved laboratory and endoscopic hallmarks, but bloody stools persisted. Finally, the treatment was ineffective in the fourth patient who eventually underwent surgery. C<strong>onclusions:<\/strong>&nbsp;GCAP is effective in improving clinical symptoms and may play an important role in converting steroid therapy to other treatments in children with steroid-refractory or steroid-dependent&nbsp;ulcerative colitis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"post-content max-w-987 mx-auto px-20 lg:px-0\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/jpgn\/FullText\/2006\/11000\/Efficacy_of_Granulocyte_Apheresis_in_Pediatric.8.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/journals.lww.com\/jpgn\/FullText\/2006\/11000\/Efficacy_of_Granulocyte_Apheresis_in_Pediatric.8.aspx<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ikeda, Hitoshi; Ishimaru, Yuki; Takayasu, Hajime; Fujino, Junko; Kisaki, Yoshiyuki; Otani, Yushi; Yamagishi, Junko; Tahara, Kazunori.
