Table 2.

Efficacy of ravulizumab in treatment-naïve patients with atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome in clinical studies

Outcomes Adults (n = 56) [19] Paediatric pts (n = 18) [13, 21]
Complete TMA responsea (% pts) [95% CI] 53.6 [39.6–67.5] 77.8 [52.4–93.6]
 Platelet count ≥ 150 × 109/Lb (% pts) [95% CI] 83.9 [73.4–94.4] 94.4 [72.7–99.9]
 Lactate dehydrogenase ≤ 246 U/Lb (% pts) [95% CI] 76.8 [64.8–88.7] 88.9 [65.3–98.6]
 Serum creatinine ≥ 25% improvement from BLb (% pts) [95% CI] 58.9 [45.2–72.7] 83.3 [58.6–96.4]
Haematologic normalizationc (% pts) [95% CI] 73.2 [60.7–85.7] 88.9 [NA]
Haemoglobin ≥ 20 g/L (% pts) [95% CI] 71.4 [58.8–84.2] 88.9 [65.3–98.6]
Median changes from BL at day 183 (BL)
 Platelet count (× 109/L) ↑ 125.0 (95.3) 247.0 (51.3)
 Lactate dehydrogenase (U/L) ↓ 310.8 (508) 1851.5 (1963.0)
 Estimated glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/1.73 m2) ↑ 29.0 (10) 80.0 (22.0)
 Haemoglobin (g/L) ↑ 35.0 (85) NA (74.3)

BL baseline, NA not available, pts patients, TMA thrombotic microangiopathy, ↑ increased, ↓ decrease

aPrimary endpoint, assessed through week 26; patients had to meet criteria for all TMA components concurrently, and each criterion had to be met at two separate assessments obtained ≥ 28 days apart and at any measurement in between

bComponent of complete TMA response

cPlatelet count ≥ 150 × 109/L plus lactate dehydrogenase ≤ 246 U/L

“Serum creatinine ≥ 25% ↑ from BLb (% pts) [95% CI]”

Should read:

“Serum creatinine ≥ 25% improvement from BLb (% pts) [95% CI]”
