I ' rVaaa SO-2701 - Z MARrrrALL, K'c ' The Camp family knew about birth defects long be fore their son David was born. Although they had four healthy daughters, the life of one of their nephews had been claimed by a he reditary disease seven years earlier. Every father wants a son, but Mr. Camp knew that his nephew's illness li.nd been "sex-linked" tli.it is, girls carry the gene but beys get the illness and that if his wife bore a son, he would run a 50-50 chance of being afflicted. When David was born on March 19, 1968 in Wallingford; Conn., his parents and doctor were on the alert. At first, David seemed a fine, healthy looking 7 pound 10 ounce baby. But Dr. Jerome L'Heureux did not relax. He knew that if David was suffering from the same condition as his cousin, the signs might not show up initially. , Three months later, the in sidious illness was discovered in laboratory tests. As feared, the diagnosis was sex-linked lymphopenic immunologic de ficiency. The prognosis was not good Effects of this disease had al ways destroyed its victims' lives before their first birthday. Tears of Research Agammaglobulinemia (AGG) was first described in 1953. David s body lacked the nor mal defense system which helps us fight infections. Even a mild childhood illness could cause his death because of the deficiency in his ability to produce antibodies. As far as Dr. L'Heureux knew, nothing effective could be dona for David. But when he consulted with his colleagues about the case, one called his attention to the AGO research work of Dr. . Robert A. Good at tha. Uni versity of Minnesota.- ' He contacted Dr. Good and - initiated a atrinf of events that led to the first successful . bone marrow transplant in his. - tory giving life to one little boy, and riving hope, to many others affected with immune logic oVficienciei. ' ' Dr. Good is one of the many " researchers whoa work Is sup i HELPING HER BROTHER, David, It a habit with Dorssn Camp. Shs was ths donor for a bone marrow transplant that corrected a rare immunological birth defect in the Connecticut lad. ported by grants from the Na tional Foundation-March of Dimes. A professor of pediat rics and microbiology at the University of Minnesota, he has been a National Founda tion grantee since 1960. He and his associates have been conducting a variety of research projects related to birth defects ol the Immunity system and bodily defenses. To correct such defects. Dr. Good wanted to transplant healthy Done marrow into pa uents with sucn defects in order to reconstitute their im munologic systems. Other investigators had con sidered this line of treatment, but previous attempts at trans nlantation had . failed because of overwhelming, and ultimate ly fatal grart-vs.-host reac tions. Most people are familiar with the concept of the GVH reaction today because of the publicity that heart transplants nave received. When foreign material enters the body, anti bodies tend to build up and attack or reject this material. This is tha "rejection reaction" the body rejects toe donor material. The GVH reaction Is essen tially the opposite of the re jection reaction. Tha antibody cells of the graft or donor material attack the host body into which it is transplanted. une reaction can Da mini mized only by matching the donor material at eloselr as r;.-..lla to that of tha patient The well-known process of blood typing, i.e., assuring that a person with type A Hood is not transfused with type B blood, is analagous to the matching which must be done before a transplant. But the marrow-grafting procedure is much more difficult. Miracle In Minneapolis This is where previous at tempts had failed and where Dr. Good and his associates succeeded. By August 1968, the entire Camp family had journeyed to the March of Dimes Birth Defects Research Center in Mineapolis. After extensive testing of David's four sisters, nine-year-old Doreen was chosen as the donor. On August 24, the trans plant was performed. About two ounces of marrow was withdrawn throuen a hollow needle from Doreen'i hipbone and injected into Davids ab dominal cavity. On September 2. LAhor T3av.
