Evaluating the Interest of Interleukine-2 for Patients With Active Warm Hemolytic Anemia Resistant to Conventional Treatment

NCT02389231 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: PHASE1/PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 2

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators have demonstrated that the mean percentage of circulating CD8+ regulatory T (CD8 Tregs) cells is significantly higher in patients with warm hemolytic anemia (wAHAI) in remission than in controls and is correlated to hemoglobin levels. In vitro, low dose of interleukine-2 (IL2) induce the expansion of CD8 Tregs. The objective is to demonstrate that, over a 9 week treatment period; low doses of IL2 can induce the expansion of CD8Tregs in patients with active wAHAI.

Conditions

  • Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

Interventions

DRUG

Interleukine-2

Four courses of IL2 ( \[Proleukin, Novartis\]) will be administered subcutaneously for 5 days. The first course will be limited to a dose of 1.5 million IU per day and followed by a 9 day wash-out. The other courses of 3 million IU per day will be initiated after a 16 day wash-out.
