We investigated the safety and efficacy of the granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) in 13 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Five-day administration of 2 mg/kg once a day was followed by a six-month observation period. The primary and secondary endpoints were the changes of ALS functional rating scale (ALSFRS) and the compound muscle action potential ( CMAP) amplitude, respectively. We found that the declines of ALSFRS and CMAP amplitude after G-CSF administration were significantly less than those measured prior to the treatment. The results suggest G-CSF is safe in ALS patients, and may affect the rate of motor decline.
