About this study

Official title: Multicentre Study of Nomacopan (rVA576) in Paediatric Haematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplant Associated Thrombotic Microangiopathy

Multicentre Study of nomacopan in Paediatric Haematopoietic Stem-Cell Transplant Associated Thrombotic Microangiopathy

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, multi-centre study of two-parts, Part A and B, includes 24 weeks of treatment, safety follow up after 30 days.

Part A: dose algorithm, safety and efficacy

Part B: safety and efficacy

Being tested
nomacopan (rVA576)
Medical subject headings
Thrombotic Microangiopathies

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • nomacopan (rVA576)Drug

    The study population will consist of paediatric patients who have undergone allogeneic or autologous HSCT and develop HSCT-TMA within a year of HSCT

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants NOT Requiring a Red Blood Bell Transfusion (Transfusion Independence) for 28 Days or More OR Number of Participants With a Urine Protein Creatinine Ratio Value of ≤ 2 mg/mg Maintained for 28 Days or More.

    Red blood cell transfusion independence for ≥28 days immediately prior to any scheduled clinical visit up to Week 24 or Urine protein creatinine ratio ≤ 2 mg/mg maintained over ≥ 28 days immediately prior to any scheduled clinical visit up to week 24

    Transfusion independence is defined as no RBC transfusion attributable to, or required to manage, thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). Transfusions required for causes other than TMA will not be considered within the evaluation of the efficacy endpoints.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Participants With a Normalised sC5b-9 Value (Where sC5b-9 is the Same Value as the Upper Limit of Normal or Less)

    Plasma sC5b-9 ≤ upper limit of normal (ULN)

    Measured: 24 weeks

  2. Number of Participants With a Normalised Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Value (Where LDH is the Same Value as the Upper Limit of Normal or Less)

    Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) ≤ULN

    Measured: 24 weeks

  3. Normalisation of Lab Parameters

    Number of participants with a normalised haptoglobin value (where haptoglobin is within the normal ranges)

    Measured: 24 weeks

  4. Number of Participants Not Requiring a Platelet Transfusion (Transfusion Independence) for 28 Days or More.

    Transfusion independence is defined as no platelet transfusion attributable to, or required to manage, thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). Transfusions required for causes other than TMA will not be considered within the evaluation of the efficacy endpoints.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing nomacopan (rVA576) in people with Thrombotic Microangiopathies, run by AKARI Therapeutics at 9 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in United States, United Kingdom, Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 May 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants NOT Requiring a Red Blood Bell Transfusion (Transfusion Independence) for 28 Days or More OR Number of Participants With a Urine Protein Creatinine Ratio Value of ≤ 2 mg/mg Maintained for 28 Days or More. (time frame: 24 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Jun 2025.
