TLR 4 and 9 receptor agonists to prevent septic complications of post-traumatic immunosuppression in patients hospitalized for severe traumas

摘要

The present invention concerns a pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one agonist of at least one Toll Like receptor (TLR) chosen from TLR 4 and 9, for use in the prophylactic treatment of septic complications of post-traumatic systemic immunodepression in a patient who has suffered one or more severe traumatic injuries and is hospitalized in particular in an intensive care unit. Preferably, said TLR 4 agonist is monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA) or deacylated 3-O-monophosphoryl lipid A (3D-MPLA) and said TLR 9 agonist is a CpG oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG ODN).
