Open-label, controlled, phase 2 clinical trial assessing the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of INM004 in pediatric patients with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (STEC-HUS) is a severe condition mainly affecting children. It is one of the leading causes of acute kidney injury in the pediatric population. There is no established therapy for this disease. INM004 is an anti-Shiga toxin composed of equine polyclonal antibodies. This study is aimed at assessing the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of INM004 in pediatric patients with STEC-HUS.

Methods

Phase 2, open-label clinical trial with an historical control arm. Patients in the treatment arm received two doses of INM004. The primary endpoints were the safety profile, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy (dialysis days) of INM004. Secondary endpoints included other kidney and extrarenal outcomes. Pr
