- Representative compounds which inhibit Interieukin 10 are disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,292,725 (Prendergast), the entirety of which is hereby incorporated by reference, which may be used in the combination therapy to counteract the Th 1 suppressive immune side effect of the anti-viral monotherapy.
- RD is a patient under my care. He has Acute Myeloid Leukaemia M3 in remission following allogenic bone marrow transplant His major active problems have been GUT Graft Versus Host Disease and severe lung disease. RD's general health has improved over the last 3 months This has coincided with him taking the therapy and he is now enjoying good health For the first time since his diagnosis he has been able to enjoy full days at school. He no longer needs nasal gastric feeds or suffers with diarrhea His lung function remains at 30% but his exercise tolerance has improved dramatically. He no longer needs a wheelchair and can tolerate light exercise. As he is on no other drug regime and has been taking this medication for nearly 3 months we must consider that this therapy is influencing these beneficial effects on his body.
- DHEA Another area of potential therapeutic benefit previously ascribed to DHEA is the enhancement of vaccine antigen recognition by the immune system in the elderly
- Interieukin 10 levels achieved versus the DHEA therapies efficacy as vaccine adjuvant We have identified that the administration of recombinant Interieukin 10 to the elderly in association with or in advance of treatment with an antigen vaccine created an enhanced adjuvant effect, which enhanced the antibody response directly Whereas with DHEA there is a chance of not producing elevated levels of Interieukin 10
- the effectiveness of DHEA therapy really depends on the metabolism, blood levels achieved and timing of the DHEA administration to the patient with or prior to the vaccine antigen.
- the co-administration of recombinant Interieukin 10 is a more direct means of achieving enhanced antibody response in the elderly or very young patient and removes the uncertainties of steroid metabolism and cytokine responses associated with DHEA monotherapy This for the first time explains why DHEA has very often produced contradictory responses in the therapy of specific conditions e g , Lupus, MS and HIV because the real therapeutic effect is dependent upon cytokine profiles and immune reactions which are generated upon the administration of the steroid or its analogues Therefore, the therapeutic effectiveness of DHEA is unpredicatable as an immune modulator and dependent upon both the steroids metabolism and the cytokine profile of the patient during and prior to DHEA therapy.
- Desired immune therapeutic response can only be achieved by utilizing directly the Interieukin 10 cytokine required or by co-administering Interieukin 10 inhibitors and/or specific antisera to same DHEA thus administered in a combination therapy will facilitate Interieukin 12 enhancement without the general negative effects of Interieukin 10 whereas Tl" ⁇ response is desired for therapeutic benefit
- DHEA and the cytokines profile of patients who respond to DHEA therapy and those who do not respond to DHEA therapy have led to my discovery that elevated Interieukin 10 is the active agent responsible for the therapeutic response observed to alleviate the clinical symptoms of lupus
- E9C, E9E and E9F were stimulated by the addition of DHEA or IL-12 in the presence of gp120.
- the stimulation caused by the DHEA in each of these cases was equal to or greater than that caused by the IL-12, although the concentration of DHEA causing the stimulation varied from sample to sample.
- E9A (HIV-1 negative) as well as E9D and E9G (HIV-1 positive) proliferation in the presence of gp120 was suppressed by the addition of DHEA or IL-12.
- Human IL-12 is a disulfide-bonded heterodimeric cytokine consisting of a 40- and a 35-kD subunit. The genes for this cytokine have been cloned and purified recombinant protein has been produced. It has recently been demonstrated that in vivo administration of murine Interieukin 12 (IL-12) to mice results in augmentation of cytotoxic natural killer (NK)/lymphocytes- activated killer cell activity, enhancement of cytolytic T cell generation, and induction of interferon gamma secretion. In this study, the in vivo activity of murine IL-12 against a number of murine tumors has been evaluated.
- NK cytotoxic natural killer
- mice treated intraperitoneaUy with IL-12 were markedly reduced in mice treated intraperitoneaUy with IL-12, resulting in an increase in survival time.
- the therapeutic effectiveness of IL- 12 was dose dependent and treatment of subcutaneous tumors were effectively treated by IL-12 at doses which resulted in no gross toxicity.
- Local peritumoral injection of IL-12 into established subcutaneous Renca tumors resulted in regression and complete disappearance of these tumors.
- IL-12 was as effective in NK cell-deficient beige mice or in mice depleted of NK cell activity by treatment with antiasialo GM1 , suggesting that NK cells are not the primary cell type mediating the antitumor effects of this cytokine.
- IL-12 has potent in vivo antitumor and antimetastatic effects against murine tumors and demonstrate as well the critical role of CD8+ T cells in mediating the antitumor effects against subcutaneous tumors.
- Los Angeles Patient Study The involvement of Interieukin 12 with CD8+ cell generated was demonstrated in a HIV+ patient study conducted for this patent. Patients with a CDE8+ cell population showed an 84% increase above baseline values and 11 IV viral load was reduced to zero by the administration of polyclonal antibodies to human Interieukin 10. The removal of Interieukin 10 allowed CD8+ cell increase and allowed for HIV viral clearance by restoring HIV specific cell mediated Immune response.
- Antibody Class IgG
- IL-1 a IL-1 B, IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, IL-6, IL-7 IL-8, MIP-1a, TNFa and GM-CSF done by EIA.
- Protocol Summary Run PBMC from HIV- blood first to see if all reagents are performing as expected before proceeding with HIV+ samples 13 Another HIV- sample should be run after all the HIV+ samples have been completed 14. Compile and analyze data. Protocol Summary
