Abstract

Treatment with transfer factor in a patient with disseminated varicella infection complicating stage IV Hodgkin's disease is described. The patient, a 24-year-old woman, showed transient clinical improvement and restoration of immune response to varicella-zoster antigen after receiving transfer factor. Though she later died from septicaemia, further trials of treatment of disseminated viral infection in patients with Hodgkin's disease with transfer factor are indicated.
