  • Subjects with levels of alanine amino transferase (ALT) and aspartate amino transferase (AST) > 2.5 times the upper limit of normal for the testing laboratory.

  • Subjects with selective complete IgA deficiency
  • Subjects with moderate levels of anti-IgA antibodies (>150), or subjects with lower anti-IgA antibodies who are naive to IGIV treatment. (Subjects with lower levels of IgA antibodies, whom the investigators know to have tolerated IgA containing IGIV preparations in the past, may be included if the investigator is comfortable with this)
  • Subjects receiving antibiotic therapy for the treatment of infection within 30 days prior to enrollment
