Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|

Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| reduction in autoimmunity markers including FACS on peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets (change Th17 (CD4+IL-17+) and T-regs (CD4+CD25+ FoxP3+) and T-cell exhaustion at these timepoints. Finally, plasma metabolites are determined | — |
