Most studies reported efficacy of IVIg in lupus nephritis who had failed their initial induction therapy of IV corticosteroids and cytotoxic agents. Twelve case reports were identified. Patients received 1 or 2 courses of high-dose IVIg in combination with corticosteroids, with or without plasma exchange or cytotoxic agents.
