Trade Name: ORENCIA
Pharmaceutical Form: Powder for infusion*
INN or Proposed INN: ABATACEPT
Concentration unit: mg milligram(s)
Concentration type: equal
Concentration number: 250-

Primary Outcome(s)
Primary end point(s): Survival without the occurrence of new autoimmune phenomena; number and severity of autoimmune flares (cutanous, intestinal, haematological, respiratory). Residual growth.
Secondary Objective: To widen the trial and to propose new protocols for treating IPEX.
Main Objective: To improve the ratio between benefits and costs for the treatment with drugs in subjects not eligible for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In particular, to obtain a better control of the disease with less of the immunosuppressants-related side effects (infections and suppression of the hypothalamic axis).
