Introduction: CHAPLE disease is a severe, ultra-rare disorder caused by CD55 gene mutations, leading to uncontrolled complement hyperactivation, protein-losing enteropathy, and systemic thrombosis. Recent advances in targeted therapies, particularly the C5 inhibitor pozelimab (Veopoz), offer new treatment options by addressing complement dysregulation, marking a shift from symptomatic to precision therapy.
Areas Covered: This review explores the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and current treatments for CHAPLE disease.
