## Abstract Extracorporeal immune adsorption with staphylococcal protein A (SPA) columns can remove immune complexes and immunoglobulins in the treatment of a variety of diseases. We present the case of an elderly man with neuropathy associated with monoclonal gammopathy, treated by 3 onโline SPA p

## Abstract Autoโantibodies to myocardial antigens have been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). A protein A immunoadsorption affinity column system was used to remove IgG antibodies, particularly IgG3. Two techniques, the standard technique (Tโ1) used for remova
## Abstract **Summary:** Antiโlow density lipoprotein antibody (antiโLDL) molecules were attached covalently and oriented through Protein A onto poly(2โhydroxyethyl methacrylateโethylene glycol dimethacrylate) [poly(HEMAโEGDMA)] beads in order to remove cholesterol specifically from hypercholestero
Sensory or sensorimotor demyelinating polyneuropathies may be associated with monoclonal immunoglobulins (paraproteins). Our prior experience suggests that "off-line" Prosorba column treatments may be effective therapy for patients with polyneuropathies associated with paraproteins of the IgG class.
## Abstract ## Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate functional effects of immunoadsorption (IA) in patients with chronic nonfamilial dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) regarding clinical and humoral markers of heart failure. ## Background: IA has been shown to induce early hemody
