Associations Between Short-Term Changes in Disease Activity and Long-Term Clinical Outcomes in Activated Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase Delta Syndrome.

Leniolisib treatment quickly improved immune function in APDS patients, and these early improvements predicted better long-term outcomes including fewer infections.

This PubMed record reports a randomized controlled trial on Associations Between Short-Term Changes in Disease Activity and Long-Term Clinical Outcomes in Activated Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase Delta Syndrome. The authors report that in this clinical trial setting, short-term improvements in immunodeficiency and dysregulation following treatment with leniolisib were associated with longer-term improvements in clinical outcomes, including infection rates and quality of life, for patients with APDS.
