排除标准

  • Disease duration more than 4 years
  • FVC<, = 50%
  • LVEF<, = 40% of predicted value,
  • DLCO<, = 40% of predicted value
  • Exclusion criteria as specifically described in the protocol for anti-CD-20:
  • - Lack of peripheral venous access.
  • - Pregnancy or breast feeding.
  • - Significant cardiac or pulmonary disease (including obstructive pulmonary disease).
  • - Evidence of significant uncontrolled concomitant disease such as, but not limited to, nervous system, renal, hepatic, endocrine or gastrointestinal disorders which, in the investigator’s opinion, would preclude patient participation.

  • - Receipt of any vaccine within 28 days prior to baseline
  • - Intolerance or contraindications to i.v. glucocorticoids.
  • - Positive serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) measured at screening or a positive pregnancy test prior to the first rituximab infusion.
