The C10-004 Study Group. 6:18 PM 6:30 PM Background: aHUS is a rare, severe, genetic, life-threatening disease of chronic complement-mediated TMA. ECU, a terminal complement inhibitor, is approved for the treatment of aHUS. Here, we report safety and efficacy results of ECU in adult pts from the largest prospective study performed in aHUS. Methods: This was a single-arm, Phase 2 trial of ECU in adult pts (≥18 yrs) with aHUS and platelets <LLN at screening. Prior plasma exchange or infusion (PE/PI) was not required for inclusion. The primary endpoint was the proportion of pts with complete TMA response at 26 wks. Results: 41 pts enrolled and 38 (93%) received 26 wks of treatment. 30 pts (73%) were newly diagnosed (median duration to treatment initiation of 2 weeks). Six pts had no PE/PI during the current clinical manifestation. At wk 26, 30 pts (73%) achieved the primary endpoint. 24/41 pts (59%) were on dialysis at BL, 20 of whom discontinued by wk 26. Mean (95% CI) eGFR increase from baseline was 26.1 mL/min/1.73 m (19.8; 32.4: P<0.0001). Two pts who were not on dialysis at baseline initiated during the treatment period and remained on dialysis through 26 wks. QoL significantly improved. ECU was generally safe and well tolerated. Two pts had meningococcal infections; one pt continued ECU. No pts died. Conclusions: ECU normalized hematologic parameters and significantly improved renal function and QoL. 83% of pts on dialysis at baseline were able to discontinue by wk 26. The results of this prospective study confirm that ECU inhibits complement-mediated TMA in adult aHUS pts. The study is ongoing.
