“…Trials using low or ultra-low dose IL-2 Aldesleukin is a commercially available IL-2 produced by recombinant DNA technology, which differs from the natural cytokine by the absence of glycan residues, presence of a serine instead of a cysteine at position 125 and absence of the N-terminal alanine 31 . Aldesleukin at low dose, in the order of 1.0 × 10 6 IU per day 15,16,29,30 , or ultra-low dose, less than 1.0 × 10 6 IU per week, in adults and children 17,18,23,24 , induces Tregs in a dose-dependent manner with no drug-related adverse events except for a small temporary non-itchy rash at the site of injection 22-24 . Aldesleukin has been used for over 20 years, mainly in patients with cancer or HIV at very high doses, tens of millions of units daily, often delivered intravenously 32,33 . More recently, following promising results from preclinical studies, aldesleukin at low or ultra-low doses has been successfully and safely used in trials for the treatment of chronic graft-versus-hostdisease (cGVHD) 26,27,30 and hepatitis C virus-induced vasculitis 16 .…”
