Extracorporeal Virus Elimination for the Treatment of Severe Ebola Virus Disease - First Experience with Lectin Affinity Plasmapheresis Büttner S. a · Koch B. a · Dolnik O. b · Eickmann M. b · Freiwald T. a · Rudolf S. a · Engel J. a · Becker S. b · Ronco C. c · Geiger H. a Author affiliations Corresponding Author Keywords: Ebola virusGlycoproteinLectin affinityPlasmapheresis February 2015 Abstract Therapeutic options for Ebola virus disease (EVD) are currently limited to ( 1 ) best supportive care, and ( 2 ) evolving virus - specific therapies, resulting from decades of analyzing one of the world's deadliest diseases . Supportive care ranges from oral or intravenous rehydration therapy and anti - emetics in developing countries to much more extensive life - support interventions in resource - rich countries . Current EVD - specific therapies attempt to either interfere with the earliest steps of viral replication or to elicit a strong immune response against the virus . An entirely new approach is the extracorporeal elimination of viruses and viral glycoproteins by lectin affinity plasmapheresis . Herein, we report for the first time the successful and safe use of lectin affinity plasmapheresis in a patient with severe Ebola virus disease .
