Summary

This study tests a drug called satralizumab for people with two rare autoimmune brain diseases (NMDAR and LGI1 encephalitis). The goal is to see if it improves disability and reduces the need for emergency treatment. About 120 adults will receive either the drug or a placebo, and researchers will track their recovery over 24 to 52 weeks.
