Thymalfasin and Recombinant Human IL-2 Injections in Treating Lymphocytopenia for Patients With Malignant Hematological Tumors

September 2, 2024 updated by: Zhijuan Lin, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University

A Phase II, Single-Center, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of Thymalfasin and Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 Injections in Treating Lymphocytopenia in Patients With Malignant Hematological Tumors

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Thymalfasin for injection in combination with Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 Injections in the treatment of lymphocytopenia in patients with malignant hematological tumors

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A prospective, randomized controlled study is proposed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Thymalfasin for injection in combination with Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 Injections, Recombinant Human Interleukin-2 Injections as a monotherapy, and a non-intervention group. Follow-up observations will also be conducted.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with histologically confirmed myeloid, B lymphocyte, and plasma cell-derived malignant hematological tumors.
  2. Lymphocyte count ≤ 0.8×109/L or CD4+T cell count ≤ 0.35×109/L.
  3. Age ≥ 18 years, both male and female, with an expected survival period of more than 3 months.
  4. Estimated creatinine clearance rate ≥ 30 mL/min.
  5. AST and ALT ≤ 3.0 x ULN. Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN.
  6. ECOG ≤ 2.
  7. Able to understand and voluntarily provide informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Active autoimmune disease.
  2. Patients considered to have a malignant T-cell clone.
  3. Within 8 days after chemotherapy for lymphoma and within 14 days after chemotherapy for AML.
  4. Tumor involvement in the bone marrow leading to hematopoietic suppression (neutrophils <1.0×10^9/L, HB<70g/L, PLT<50×10^9/L).
  5. HIV-positive patients and/or active HBV or HCV infection (as evidenced by positive HBV-DNA and HCV-RNA test records).
  6. Patients with chronic respiratory diseases requiring continuous oxygen, or with significant past medical history of kidney, neurological, psychiatric, endocrine, metabolic, immune, hepatic, cardiovascular diseases.
  7. Immunosuppressive treatment (such as cyclosporine, corticosteroids, ruxolitinib, JAK1/2 inhibitors, etc.) within the past 5 days.
  8. Psychiatric disorders that would interfere with study participation.
  9. Patients who have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  10. Consideration of allergy to Thymalfasin or Interleukin-2.
  11. Any other condition that the researcher believes makes the patient unsuitable for this trial.
