Summary

This study tests a drug called emapalumab in 10 people with APECED, a rare disease where the immune system attacks the body, causing severe gut inflammation (enteritis). Participants receive 7 doses over 6 months, and researchers track symptom changes and side effects. The goal is to see if the drug can control gut symptoms, not cure the disease.
