1 Effect of low dose cyclophosphamide on the immune system of cancer patients: depletion of CD4+, 2H4+ suppressor-inducer T-cells. Cyclophosphamide CD4 molecule Homo sapiens
2 Treatment of melanoma patients with CY plus vaccine resulted in a progressive fall in the proportion of CD4+ T-cells expressing the 2H4 (CD45) antigen, which identifies inducers of suppression. Cyclophosphamide CD4 molecule Homo sapiens
3 The reduction of CD4+, 2H4+ T-cells did not become apparent until day 28 after the first dose of CY and reached statistical significance only on days 49 (21 days after the second dose) and 105 (21 days after the fourth dose) (mean changes +/- SE: day 49, -5.4 +/- 1.4%, P less than 0.01; day 105, -9.1 +/- 2.2%, P less than 0.01; t test for nonindependent samples). Cyclophosphamide CD4 molecule Homo sapiens
