Thymosin fraction 5 contains a family of polypeptides with varying biological activities. Current efforts in the thymosin research program are involved in further chemical characterization of thymosin peptides and evaluation of clinical immunotherapeutic protocols. Recent clinical studies with thymosin fraction 5 have shown therapeutic potentials for treatment of patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases and cancer.
