Summary

This study tested a combination of two drugs—interferon-gamma monoclonal antibody and dexamethasone—in 22 adults with a severe immune condition called refractory secondary HLH. The goal was to see if the treatment helps patients recover and how safe it is. Participants received the drugs as part of their care and were monitored with blood tests and checkups for 8 weeks.
