Uni-Bio developing platelet stimulator for use with chemotherapy
By Lisa Kerner
Charlotte, N.C., Sept. 20 - Uni-Bio Science Group Ltd. and an independent biotechnology institute in the People's Republic of China collaborated on a phase 3 clinical trial of Recombinant Human Interleukin 11 (rhIL-11), a platelet stimulator, for the treatment of chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia.
Non-myelosuppressed patients received rhIL-11 daily subcutaneous dosing for 14 days with platelet count increased in a dose-dependent manner. After treatment was discontinued, platelet counts continued to increase for up to seven days and then returned toward baseline within 14 days.
Uni-Bio is a Hong Kong-based pharmaceutical company.
