Conclusions: Treatment with PLX-R18 is safe, well-tolerated and clearly effective in some patients. The most frequent AEs were reversible injection site reactions, all without sequelae. An overall improvement was observed in most patients, and among the high-dose cohort clinically impressive improvements in Hb, ANC and PLT were observed. The trial continues to follow up on patients. Upon completion, a large phase II trial, using the optimal dose, is considered for the same indication. Other attractive clinical areas for PLX-R18 therapy include acute radiation syndrome, bone marrow failure, aplastic anemia, myelofibrosis and with HCT as a “pan” cytokine to enhance rapid count recovery in all cells lines.
