About this trial
The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan upon switching from anti-C5 antibody to iptacopan treatment in study participants with aHUS.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Male and female adult participants ≥ 18 years of age with diagnosis of aHUS for whom etiologies of other types of TMA and non-aHUS kidney disease have been excluded.
In the opinion of the investigator the participant has responded to anti-C5 antibodytreatment prior to screening and has clinical evidence of response (in absence of PE/PI) during the Screening period.
Hematological normalization in platelet count ≥150 x 10^9/L and LDH below upper limit of normal [ULN], and
Stable kidney function as defined by serum creatinine values within ±15% during the Screening period
Disqualifiers
History of aHUS disease relapse while on anti-C5 antibody treatment.
eGFR < 30 ml/min/1.73m²
Active infection or history of recurrent invasive infections caused by encapsulated bacteria, i.e., meningococcus, pneumococcus (eg., N. meningitidis, S. pneumoniae) or H. influenzae.
Participants with sepsis or active systemic bacterial, viral (including COVID-19) or fungal infection within 14 days prior to study treatment administration.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Percentage of participants free of TMA manifestation
Absence of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) manifestation, without use of anti-C5 antibody, during the 12 months of iptacopan treatment following the switch of treatment from an anti-C5 antibody to iptacopan treatment.
Secondary outcomes
Percentage of participants free of TMA manifestation in study participants with functionally significant mutations in complement genes or positive anti FH antibodies
Absence of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) manifestation in study participants with functionally significant mutations in complement genes or positive anti FH antibodies, without the use of anti-C5 antibody during iptacopan treatment following the switch of treatment from an anti-C5 antibody to iptacopan treatment.
Percentage of participants free of TMA manifestation
Absence of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) manifestation, without use of anti-C5 antibody, during the 24 months of iptacopan treatment following the switch of treatment from an anti-C5 antibody to iptacopan treatment.
