Notable continued responses were observed in multiple patients through week 55, approximately seven months post-last dose, suggesting potential remittive effects and durability of response.
Part B will evaluate approximately 20 severe or very severe AA patients over 36 weeks, with follow-up to 52 weeks. The treatment protocol includes a 200mg weekly loading regimen for four weeks, followed by 200mg every-other-week maintenance doses over 32 weeks.
