tests:

Abnormal neutrophil NBT slide test (following PMA stimulation) and neutrophil superoxide
anion production less than or equal to 20 percent normal.

Preserved renal function (creatinine less than or equal to 2.0 mg/100 mL; less than or
equal to 2+ proteinuria).

Preserved hepatic function (bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 mg/100 mL; prothrombin
time less than or equal to 1.3 x control).

greater than 1500/mm3; platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/mm3).

A minimum life expectancy of three months.

Patients seropositive for Hepatitis B surface antigen may be entered but serum specimens
for rIFN-y antibody should not be collected.

Patients must not be pregnant or lactating.

Patients of childbearing potential may be entered if using effective contraception.

Full recovery from previous serious infections requiring hospitalization and parenteral
