- Chronic Hepatitis B (adjunct)
- 1.6 mg subcutaneous
- Twice weekly
- 24–52 weeks
- 15–20% increase in HBeAg seroconversion; 0.8–1.2 log₁₀ reduction in viral DNA
- Post-Chemotherapy Recovery
- 12–16 weeks
- 20–30% faster CD4+ reconstitution; reduced infection incidence
- Severe Sepsis / Immune Paralysis

- Restoration of monocyte HLA-DR expression; 8–10% reduction in 28-day mortality
- HIV (experimental adjunct)
- Ongoing (maintenance)
- Partial restoration of CD4+/CD8+ ratio in treatment-experienced patients
- The 1.6 mg dose is the most extensively studied and represents the threshold for detectable immune modulation in clinical trials. Lower doses (0.8 mg or 0.9 mg) appear in older literature but show inconsistent results. Higher doses (3.2 mg) have been tested in sepsis protocols without additional benefit. The TLR9 and cytokine pathways appear to saturate at the 1.6 mg level.
