titleOfInvention | Method for treating pneumonia, including covid-19 pneumonia, with an il6 antagonist |
abstract | The application describes a method of treating pneumonia (e.g. COVID-19 pneumonia) in a patient comprising administering a weight-based intravenous dose of tocilizumab to the patient, wherein the weight-based dose is 8 mg/kg of tocilizumab. It also describes a method of treating pneumonia in a patient comprising administering an IL6 antagonist (e.g. an IL6 receptor antibody such as tocilizumab) to the patient in an amount effective to achieve a greater improvement in clinical outcome than standard of care (SOC) as measured on an ordinal scale of clinical status. Moreover, the application describes a method of treating pneumonia in a patient comprising: (a) administering a first weight-based 8 mg/ kg intravenous dose of tocilizumab to the patient; and (b) further comprising administering a second weight-based 8 mg/kg intravenous dose of tocilizumab to the patient 8-12 hours after the first dose, wherein the patient experiences no improvement or > one-category worsening on an ordinal scale of clinical status following the first dose. In addition, the application discloses a method of treating acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in a patient who does not have elevated IL6 level comprising administering an IL6 antagonist (e.g. an IL6 receptor antibody such as tocilizumab) to the patient. |
