Immune therapy tested for kids with Sudden-Onset OCD and eating fears
NCT ID NCT04609761
Summary
This study tested whether a treatment called intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) could help children with Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS), a condition where kids suddenly develop severe obsessive-compulsive behaviors or food refusal. Ten children aged 4-17 received monthly IVIG infusions for six months. Researchers measured changes in symptoms, school attendance, and quality of life to see if this immune-based therapy was safe and effective.
