Summary: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of crovalimab in pediatric participants with aHUS.

Summary: The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to determine whether iptacopan (LNP023) is efficacious and safe for the treatment of aHUS in adult patients who are treatment naive to complement inhibitor therapy.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of crovalimab in adult and adolescent participants with aHUS.

Summary: Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) is a foodborne disease which mainly affects children. It is caused by Escherichia coli bacteria, which release a toxin called Shiga toxin within the body. This infectious form of HUS, defined as STEC-HUS, can cause sporadic cases or outbreaks, as observed in different countries. Argentina has the highest incidence of STEC-HUS worldwide. The disease is endemic, repre...

Summary: The objective of this study is to determine if early high volume intravenous fluid administration (hyperhydration) may be effective in mitigating or preventing complications of shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) infection in children and adolescents when compared with traditional approaches (conservative fluid management).

Summary: CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures for rare diseases. The CoRDS team works with patient advocacy groups, in...

Summary: Post-marketing safety data on patients treated and untreated with eculizumab or ravulizumab.

Summary: Eculizumab is an anti-C5 monoclonal antibody approved for rare diseases including atypical haemolytic-uraemic syndrome. The maintenance phase dosing regimen is identical for all adult patients but several studies have shown a high interindividual kinetics variability. A tailored administration of eculizumab based on therapeutic drug monitoring will be compared with real-life administration in adul...

Summary: Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a severe and life-threatening condition, often affecting the kidneys and brain. It can occur on the background of various clinical conditions. Dysregulation of the alternative pathway of complement may be the etiological factor and this type of TMA is classified, according to the current nomenclature, as primary atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Half the...
