Post-Marketing Clinical Study of Ravulizumab in Participants With Clinical aHUS

Multicenter, Open-label, Single-arm, Post-Marketing Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Ravulizumab in Participants Clinically Diagnosed as Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome


Sponsor

Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Enrollment

20 participants

Start Date

Dec 19, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The primary objective of this study is to assess the platelet count response to ravulizumab in participants clinically diagnosed as atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS).


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria15

  • Body weight ≥20 kilograms (kg)
  • Participants clinically diagnosed as aHUS who have any of diseases/conditions listed below (including participants in whom Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) has not been improved even after treatment for the pathogenesis of diagnosed secondary TMA and therefore, diagnosis of aHUS was made).
  • Infection (except for pneumococcal infection and Siga toxin-producing Escherichia coli infection)
  • During pregnancy or postpartum
  • Post-renal transplantation
  • Hypertensive crisis/malignant hypertension
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus and related diseases (e.g. dermatomyositis, mixed connective tissue disease, etc.)
  • Participants with the following three signs:
  • Thrombocytopenia: Platelet count <150,000/microliter (μL)
  • Microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia: Hb < 10 grams per deciliter (g/dL) (*)
  • Acute kidney injury: one of the following is fulfilled; 1. ΔsCr ≥ 0.3 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) (within 48 hours), 2. 1.5-fold increase from baseline sCr (within 7 days), 3. urinary output ≤ 0.5 mL/kg/hour for ≥ 6 hours.
  • No prior treatment with complement inhibitors.
  • The investigator plans to provide the participant with 26-week treatment with ravulizumab in accordance with the treatment policy in clinical practice.
  • Ravulizumab treatment is planned to be initiated within 14 days after onset of the latest TMA episode.
  • Participants consenting to meningococcal vaccine administration and appropriate antibiotic prophylaxis (if required).

Exclusion Criteria8

  • Participants with TTP, STEC-HUS, secondary TMA that is obviously unrelated to complement abnormality.
  • Participants with TMA caused by malignant tumors, abnormal Cobalamin C metabolism, Streptococcus pneumoniae, drugs, autoimmune diseases other than systemic lupus erythematosus and related diseases (e.g. scleroderma etc.), or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
  • Participants with pathological complement gene variants (CFH, CFI , CD46 (MCP), C3, CFB, THBD, DGKE) associated with the development of aHUS at enrolment
  • Participants with positive anti-factor H antibodies
  • More than 14 day from onset of TMA to the planned start of ravulizumab treatment
  • Chronic kidney disease or irreversible renal impairment that requires chronic dialysis
  • Presence of unresolved meningococcal disease
  • Judgement by the investigator that the participant is not eligible for the study
