The recently published article ”Ruxolitinib combined with dexamethasone for adult patients with newly diagnosed hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in China” by De Zhou et al. in Blood sheds light on the possible positive results from combination of Ruxolitinib with Dexamethasone in HLH patients.
A phase 2 trial of the Ru-D regimen—ruxolitinib combined with dexamethasone—showed promising results in adults newly diagnosed with HLH of unknown triggers.
Among 28 patients, the overall response rate was 85.7%, with a 2-month overall survival rate of 85.7% and favorable 2-year survival in non-lymphoma-associated HLH cases.
The Ru-D regimen was well tolerated, supporting further investigation in a phase 3 trial.
