AstraZeneca Ultomiris Adult HSCT-TMA Trial Misses Primary Endpoint

AI Summary

AstraZeneca's Ultomiris (ravulizumab) Phase III trial (ALXN1210-TMA-313) in adults and adolescents with thrombotic microangiopathy after haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT-TMA) did not meet its primary endpoint of event-free survival through 26 weeks. However, a separate open-label Phase III trial (ALXN1210-TMA-314) in pediatric patients with HSCT-TMA demonstrated clinically meaningful overall survival of 87.2% at 26 weeks and 73.4% at 52 weeks. Alexion, AstraZeneca Rare Disease, is proceeding with regulatory filings for Ultomiris in pediatric HSCT-TMA based on these positive results, while discussions with health authorities are ongoing regarding the adult and adolescent data.
