A Study Evaluating the Efficacy, Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Crovalimab in Pediatric Participants With Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS)

Testing Crovalimab for safety and effectiveness in kids with aHUS.

Recruiting
28-17 years
All
Phase 3

This study is checking if a medicine called crovalimab is safe and works well for children with a rare disease called atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). aHUS is a condition that can cause problems in the blood and kidneys. The study will also look at how the body processes crovalimab. To join, kids must weigh at least 5 kg (like a small backpack) and have certain vaccinations. Kids who are already taking other medicines must have been on a stable dose for 28 days. Girls who can have babies must agree to use birth control or not have sex.

  • The study requires vaccinations before participating.
  • Participants may continue some current medications if they have been stable.
  • It's important to have a stable health condition and no recent infections.

Kids who have other kidney diseases, recent infections, or certain conditions can't join. Pregnant girls or those planning to become pregnant are also not allowed. The study aims to help understand if crovalimab can be a good treatment for this rare illness.
