Abstrakt: The aim of the work was a comparative study of Tocilizumab and Thymalin effects on the morphological composition and indicators of the blood clotting system in COVID-19 of middle aged and elderly patients. Severe COVID-19 patients were divided into 3 groups: 1st - control (basic therapy), 2nd - basic therapy +Tocilizumab, 3rd - basic therapy +Thymalin. Hospital mortality in COVID-19 patients after standard therapy, Tocilizumab and Thymalin application was 40,9; 28,4 and 20,6% accordingly. The number of platelets increased by 1,5 times, the concentration of fibrinogen in blood decreased by 78% and activated partial thromboplastin time decreased by 9,3% in patients taking Tocilizumab. Under the influence of Tocilizumab, the platelet/white blood cell and platelet/lymphocyte ratios increased by 1,6 and 1,4 times, which may be a predictor of an unfavorable outcome of COVID-19. Thymalin increased the number of lymphocytes and monocytes by 2 times, the number of leukocytes - by 1,3 times, the number of platelets in the blood - by 1,5 times. Thymain decreased the platelet/lymphocyte and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratios by 1,4 times and 2 times. The use of Thymalin decreased the level of fibrinogen, lactate dehydrogenase and D-dimer in the blood by 1,2; 1,8 and 1,7 times, respectively. Thymalin, compared with Tocilizumab, meets the principles of pathogenic therapy for severe COVID-19 of middle aged and elderly patients to a greater extent, having a normalizing effect on the morphological composition and indicators of the blood clotting system.
