New drug naderin may help patients fight infections during cancer and TB therapy
NCT ID NCT07671508
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tested whether adding Naderin (sodium nucleinate) to standard treatment could reduce complications in 75 patients with cancer, tuberculosis, or hepatitis C. The main group received Naderin plus standard therapy, while the control group received standard therapy alone. Results showed that Naderin shortened the duration of low white blood cell counts by 4-5 days and reduced the number of infections, suggesting it may help patients better tolerate aggressive treatments.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Naderin (sodium nucleinate)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a supportive treatment to help patients better tolerate chemotherapy and other aggressive therapies by reducing infections and blood cell count drops.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed Phase 2/3 trial with only 75 participants. Results may not apply to all patients, and the drug's safety and effectiveness need confirmation in larger studies.

Inclusion Criteria: * Diagnosis of malignant neoplasm, tuberculosis, or hepatitis C (confirmed by clinical, laboratory, and/or histopathological criteria) * Age between 18 and 50 years at the time of enrollment * Receiving standard basic therapy (chemotherapy, anti-tuberculosis therapy, or antiviral therapy) according to national clinical protocols * Signed informed consent to participate in the study * Willingness to comply with study procedures and follow-up visits * ECOG performance status ≤ 2 or equivalent Exclusion Criteria: * Severe concomitant diseases (e.g., decompensated cardiovascular, renal, or hepatic failure) that could interfere with study participation or outcome assessment * Known hypersensitivity or contraindications to Naderin (sodium nucleinate) or its components * Pregnancy or lactation * Participation in any other interventional clinical trial within 30 days prior to enrollment * Active or uncontrolled infections (other than the primary study condition) * Severe immunodeficiency (e.g., HIV/AIDS, advanced hematological malignancies) not related to the primary study condition * Mental or cognitive impairment that would preclude informed consent or compliance with study procedures * History of organ transplantation requiring immunosuppressive therapy * Any other condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would make the participant unsuitable for the study
