Summary
This study tests whether adding belimumab (a drug approved for lupus) to standard therapy can better control autoimmune hepatitis, a chronic liver disease. About 48 adults with active or stable disease will receive weekly injections for 72 weeks. The goal is to reduce liver inflammation and lower the need for steroids or other immune-suppressing drugs.
