Abatacept for Treatment of Recurrent or de Novo Autoimmune Hepatitis
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Participants in this study will receive the study drug once a week for 6 months. If the study doctor feels the study drug has been beneficial, participants may receive additional study drug doses for up to an additional 6 months. Participants will continue on follow-up for 1 year after stopping Abatacept.
The risks related to participation in this study include potential side effects from the study drug include infusion-related reactions (reactions at the injection site), increase in respiratory adverse events, infections in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, risk of development of malignancies (cancer) or autoimmune disorders (which may make your current autoimmune disease worse or you can contract new autoimmune diseases). It is unknown if this is drug related. The study doctor will discuss any concerns about this with you prior to receiving treatment.
There is the possibility that the participant may experience improvement in their medical condition from participation in this study. However, this benefit cannot be guaranteed. There may be no direct medical benefit to the participant due to their participation. The Investigator hopes that in the future the information learned from this study will benefit other people with this condition.
