Detailed Description
Lipopolysaccharide-responsive beige-like anchor (LRBA) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte protein-4 (CTLA-4) deficiencies are primary immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent sinopulmonary infections with hypogammaglobulinemia, lymphoproliferation and immunodysregulation, which presents by enteropathy, cytopenias and autoimmune endocrinopathy. LRBA plays a pivotal role in the intracellular trafficking of by CTLA4 re-routing it away from lysosomal degradation and back to the cell surface. CTLA-4 is an key immune checkpoint protein that is constitutively expressed on fork-head box P3 (FOXP3)+ regulatory T (Treg) cells and is also induced upon activation of conventional T cells. LRBA deficiency results in very low CTLA4 expression, which explains the phenotypic overlap between LRBA and CTLA4 deficient subjects. Furthermore, reduced Treg cells number and function have been demonstrated in LRBA-deficient patients. Consequent upon this, LRBA deficiency may manifest as an IPEX like disease with early onset autoimmunity.
LRBA was originally described as a common variable immune deficiency (CVID)-like disease with autoimmunity. To date, different agents have been applied in the treatment of LRBA and CTLA4 deficiencies, including corticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulin therapy (IVIG), sirolimus, infliximab, rituximab and azathioprine. Some patients also benefit from hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), which can be curative. More recently, studies have suggested the effectiveness of abatacept, a CTLA4-Ig fusion protein, in controlling disease-related immune dysregulatory phenotypes. In addition, some biomarkers like soluble CD25 and circulating T Follicular helper (cTFH) cells were described as useful to monitor patients' disease activity. Nevertheless, the long-term effectiveness of abatacept is not well documented. Also, there is no established consensus as to the dose and frequency of abatacept therapy for the treatment of those diseases and which biomarker is most reliable for follow up of patients.
Aims of this current study include:
- Provide better and early diagnosis for LRBA, CTLA4 deficiencies by using basic and advanced immunological, genetic and molecular assays and rendering an early targeting therapy for patients.
- Discover disease related new pathways and biomarkers that can be helpful during diagnosis and monitoring abatacept targeted therapy responses.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
LRBA deficient patients on abatacept
These patients will prospectively followed and biological samples collected at baseline as well as periodically every 3 months under therapy.
Abatacept will be provided on an off-label basis upon approval of the physician's request of the drug by Turkish Medicines and Medical Devices Agency (TMMDA) of Turkish Ministry of Health.
The dosage and interval of the drug is determined according to drug instructions provided by the drug company based on the weight of the patients.
