NCT ID NCT05684159

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This Phase II trial tests a drug called NM8074 in 12 adults with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), a rare condition that causes blood clots, low platelets, and kidney injury. The drug is given by IV infusion over several weeks. The goal is to see if NM8074 can bring blood counts back to normal and improve kidney function, potentially controlling the disease without the need for ongoing plasma treatments.
