The sequence is quoted from: *****

This phase II trial studies how well polarized dendritic cell (aDC1) based therapy, interferon alpha-2, rintatolimod, and celecoxib work together in treating patients with HLA-A2 positive (+) melanoma that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). The aDC1 cell-based treatment contains white blood cells (dendritic cells or DCs) that stimulates the immune system. Interferon alpha-2 can improve the body's natural response to infections and other diseases. It can also interfere with the division of cancer cells and slow tumor growth. Rintalolimid may stimulate the immune system. Celecoxib is a drug that reduces pain. This study is being done to find out if the combination of the study cell-based treatment (aDC1 dendritic cells) and interferon alpha-2, rintatolimod, and celecoxib can prevent the growth and/or progression of melanoma.

Phase 1/2A Study of Rintatolimod and IFN Alpha Regimen in Cancer Patients With COVID-19

This phase I/IIa trial studies the best dose and side effects of rintatolimod and interferon (IFN) alpha-2b in treating cancer patients with COVID-19 infection. Interferon alpha is a protein important for defense against viruses. It activates immune responses that help to clear viral infection. Rintatolimod is double stranded ribonucleic acid (RNA) designed to mimic viral infection by stimulating immune pathways that are normally activated during viral infection. Giving rintatolimod and interferon alpha-2b may activate the immune system to limit the replication and spread of the virus.

Randomized Phase 2 Study: Neoadjuvant Conditioning of Prostate Cancer Tumor Microenvironment Using a Novel Chemokine-Modulating Regimen

This phase II trial studies how well aspirin and rintatolimod with or without interferon-alpha 2b work in treating patients with prostate cancer before surgery. Aspirin may help to keep the prostate cancer from coming back. Rintatolimod may stimulate the immune system and interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Interferon-alpha 2b may improve the body's natural response to infections and may slow tumor growth. It is not yet known how well rintatolimod, aspirin, and interferon-alpha 2b work in treating patients with prostate cancer undergoing surgery.

OBJECTIVEInterferon (IFN) alpha-2b is a protein with antiviral, antiproliferative and immunoregulatory properties that is approved for several clinical indications. A new liquid, albumin-free, IFNalpha-2b formulation has recently been developed. This study aimed to evaluate the equivalence of the pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and safety properties of the new formulation with a reference one in healthy male volunteers.METHODSA randomised, crossover, double-blind study with a 3-week washout period was performed in which Heberon Alfa R (formulation A) and Viraferon (formulation B) were compared. A single 20 x 10(6) IU IFNalpha-2b dose was administered subcutaneously to 14 apparently healthy male subjects. Serum IFN level was measured over 48 hours by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) and by antiviral activity titration. Clinical and laboratory variables were determined, as were pharmacodynamic and safety criteria.RESULTSGroups were homogeneous with regard to all demographic and baseline variables. Pharmacokinetic comparison by EIA did not show differences between the formulations: area under the curve (AUC) 2572 versus 2561 ng x h/L, maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) 318 versus 354 ng/L, time to Cmax (tmax) 8.2 versus 8.5 h, elimination half-life (t(1/2)) 5.87 versus 6.08 h, terminal elimination rate (lambda) 0.122 versus 0.118 h(-1), and mean residence time (MRT) 10.9 versus 12.0 h for formulations A and B, respectively. The differences never reached 20%, which is the clinically significant threshold. The 90% confidence interval of the ratio between them was in all cases within the 0.8, 1.25 range. The two formulations were clinically equivalent with regard to serum IFN antiviral activity titration (0.8, 1.25 criterion) regarding their pharmacokinetic parameters. There were no significant differences with respect to the pharmacodynamic variables: serum beta2-microglobulin and temperature increase. Heart rate and blood pressure changes did not differ either. Both products provoked similar haematological count decreases and had similar safety profiles. The most frequent adverse reactions were fever, tachycardia, headache and arthralgias.CONCLUSIONThe overall analysis strongly suggests the bioequivalence of these two products.

To assess the efficacy of recombinant alfa 2b-interferon treatment "Heberon alfa R" in children with chronic active hepatitis (CAH) B virus, we conducted a long-term study (three years) in 22 children infected with hepatitis B virus (17 males and 5 females), age range 3 to 15 years. Diagnostic criteria included the clinical picture, laboratory tests, virus markers (HBeAg, HBsAg), laparoscopy and liver biopsy. Children under 12 years received 3 million IU of interferon per day whereas those older than 12 years received 6 million IU of interferon per day by intramuscular injection, three times per week for four months. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels had been elevated for six months in all patients and hepatitis B viral infection was replicative. A variance analysis was made to evaluate ALT response to interferon administration and the Mc Nemar test was used to analyze HBeAg/anti-HBe behavior. Seventeen (77%) out of 22 patients responded to treatment (clearance of HBeAg and ALT levels returned to normal. HBeAg seroconversion (anti-HBe) occurred in 36% of patients during the first year (p < 0.01) and it increased to 50% by the third year follow-up. ALAT levels also decreased and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.01). This occurred during and after treatment with a steady and increasing tendency to return to normal levels within the first and third year. Side effects were scarce, transient and tolerable and they only appeared during the initial phase of treatment; symptoms were mainly influenza-like and they disappeared very soon. There were no late side effects such as medullar depression, renal toxicity and glycemia alterations.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
