What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical prognosis (Renal survival) by treatment with or without eculizumab

    Renal survival (end-stage renal disease [ESRD]-free survival)

    Measured: from the first onset date of TMA diagnosed as aHUS to the last follow up (within March 31, 2022), death, or date of ESRD diagnosis, whichever came first

  2. Clinical prognosis (Overall survival) by treatment with or without eculizumab

    Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: from the first onset date of TMA diagnosed as aHUS to the last follow up (within March 31, 2022), death, whichever came first

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Clinical prognosis (Renal survival) of all aHUS patients in Korea

    Renal survival (ESRD-free survival)

    Measured: from the first onset date of TMA diagnosed as aHUS to the last follow up (within March 31, 2022), death, or date of ESRD diagnosis, whichever came first

  2. Clinical prognosis (Overall survival) of all aHUS patients in Korea

    Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: from the first onset date of TMA diagnosed as aHUS to the last follow up (within March 31, 2022), death, whichever came first

  3. Clinical prognosis (Renal survival) of patients diagnosed with aHUS prior to the initiation of eculizumab reimbursement system in Korea

    Renal survival (ESRD-free survival)

    Measured: from the first onset date of TMA diagnosed as aHUS to the last follow up (within March 31, 2022), death, or date of ESRD diagnosis, whichever came first

  4. Clinical prognosis (Overall survival) of patients diagnosed with aHUS prior to the initiation of eculizumab reimbursement system in Korea

    Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: from the first onset date of TMA diagnosed as aHUS to the last follow up (within March 31, 2022), death, whichever came first

  5. Response rates of each treatment, compared to prior to start treatment

    Complete response of TMA

    Measured: 3rd and 6th months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of aHUS, run by Handok Inc. at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Clinical prognosis (Renal survival) by treatment with or without eculizumab (time frame: from the first onset date of TMA diagnosed as aHUS to the last follow up (within March 31, 2022), death, or date of ESRD diagnosis, whichever came first). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Jan 2025.
