Summary

This trial tests a lab-made protein called Interleukin-7 to help boost the immune system in patients with hard-to-treat lung disease caused by non-tuberculous mycobacteria. Interleukin-7 has been shown to improve specific immune responses and has potential in enhancing the body's ability to fight infections. The goal is to see if this treatment can help their immune system fight the infection better.
