E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of eculizumab in symptomatic or transfusion-dependent patients with untreated or refractory hemolytic cold agglutinin disease (CAD) |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Effect of eculizumab in hemolytic cold agglutinin disease on lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) change, transfusion avoidance, PRBC units transfused, change in hemoglobin levels, haptoglobin, hemopexin, free hemoglobin, reticulocytes, SF-36V2 QLQ, FACIT-F SCALE version 4, Six-Minute Walk Test, circulatory symptoms and thrombosis record from baseline to 26 weeks. Exploratory endpoints include: direct agglutination test (DAT), serum monoclonal immunoglobulin level, cold agglutinin (IgM or IgA) titer and thermal amplitude measures from randomization to 26 weeks, presence of a clonal B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder defined by monoclonal IgMκ or IgAκ band by serum electrophoresis and immunofixation, immunophenotyping of bone marrow, immunophenotyping of peripheral blood and blood pressure.
