Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Cyclophosphamide may help control the symptoms of autoimmune enteropathy .

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well cyclophosphamide works in treating young patients with severe autoimmune enteropathy.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

* Determine the rate of treatment-free remission in young patients with severe autoimmune enteropathy treated with high-dose cyclophosphamide.

Secondary

* Determine the toxic effects of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV over 1 hour on days 1-4. Patients then receive filgrastim (G-CSF) IV or subcutaneously once daily beginning on day 10 and continuing for 3 days or until blood counts recover.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for up to 1½ years.
