Murine lupus in NZB/NZW F1 (B/W) mice can be retarded by sustained administration of CTLA4Ig and by brief treatment early in life with mAb that block CD40/gp39 interactions. We sought to determine whether brief therapy with CTLA4Ig could provide sustained benefit in B/W mice and whether a synergistic effect could be derived by blockade of both the B7/CD28 and the CD40/gp39 pathways. We found that a short course of CTLA4Ig at the onset of disease produced only short-term benefit. However, when CTLA4Ig was combined with anti-gp39, there was long-lasting inhibition of autoantibody production and renal disease. Ten months after the 2-wk course of therapy, 70% of these mice were alive, compared with only 18% and 0% of those that received only anti-gp39 or CTLA4Ig, respectively. These findings demonstrate that brief simultaneous blockade of the B7/CD28 and CD40/gp39 costimulation pathways can produce benefit that lasts long after treatment has been discontinued.
