Study Arms (1)
modified-DEP for HLH
EXPERIMENTALmodified-DEP for the treatment of non-EBV-HLH and EBV-HLH patients.
Interventions
For non-EBV-HLH patients: Liposomes doxorubicin, 25 mg/m2 d1, etoposide 100 mg/m2 d1, methylprednisolone 1 mg/kg d1-3, then tapering according to patients condition, fully stop with d7 to d10; ruxolitinib, 15 mg bid. Emapalumab, if needed. For EBV-HLH patients: PD-1 monoclonal antibody, 2 mg/kg (maximum dose, 200 mg) d-3, liposomes doxorubicin, 25 mg/m2 d1, etoposide 100 mg/m2 d1, methylprednisolone 1 mg/kg d1-3, then tapering according to patients condition, fully stop with d7 to d10; ruxolitinib, 15 mg bid. Emapalumab, if needed.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- According to the HLH-2004 criteria, the patient meets the HLH diagnosis.
- year old \< age \< 70 years old, regardless of gender.
- Before the start of the study, total bilirubin ≤ 10 times the upper limit of normal; serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 times the normal value; fibrinogen can be corrected to ≥ 0.6g/L after infusion.
- \. Serum HIV antibody negative; HCV antibody negative, or HCV antibody positive, but HCV-RNA negative. HBV surface antigen and HBV core antibody are both negative. If any of the above is positive, peripheral blood hepatitis B virus DNA titer detection is required, and it must be less than 1×103 copies/ml before enrollment.
- \. Women of childbearing age must be confirmed to be non-pregnant through pregnancy tests, and are willing to take effective contraceptive measures during the trial and within ≥ 6 months after the last dose; pregnant and lactating women cannot participate; all male subjects take contraceptive measures during the trial and within ≥ 3 months after the last dose.
- \. Sign the informed consent form.
You may not qualify if:
- Allergic to liposome doxorubicin, etoposide, and ruxolitinib or with severe allergic constitution;
- Severe myocardial damage, with myocardial enzyme CK and CK-MB increased more than 3 times ULN (upper limit of normal value).
- Patients with heart disease of grade II or above (including grade II) according to the New York Heart Association (NYHA) score.
- Subjects who have used a total cumulative dose of doxorubicin ≥300mg/m2 or a total cumulative dose of epirubicin ≥450mg/m2, or who have previously used anthracyclines to cause heart disease.
- Subjects with severe mental illness;
- Severe and uncontrollable infections, such as lung infection, intestinal infection, and sepsis.
- Active massive bleeding in visceral organs (including gastrointestinal bleeding, alveolar bleeding, intracranial bleeding, etc.);
- Patients who are unable to rely during the trial and/or follow-up stage and who are participating in other clinical studies at the same time.
- For patients who intend to use PD-1 monoclonal antibodies, if the patient has any of the following conditions, PD-1 monoclonal antibodies will not be used, and only the DEP regimen that does not contain PD-1 monoclonal antibodies will be used:
- Those who are allergic to PD-1 monoclonal antibody components.
- Abnormal thyroid function.
- Those who have other severe immune reaction tendencies, including immune myocardial injury, immune hepatitis, immune pneumonia, etc.
