This is a Phase II, open-label study designed to determine if intravenously administered NM8074 results in remission from TMA in treatment-naïve aHUS patients.
The proposed study, NM8074-aHUS-401,will initially assign six (6) patients per cohort in a 2-cohort trial. In the first cohort, we will evaluate a biweekly dosing regimen whereas in the second cohort, we will evaluate a weekly dose (10 mg/kg) followed by the biweekly dose (20 mg/kg) over a 3-month period. These studies will determine if NM8074 results in remission from TMA in aHUS patients. If the study shows efficacy in aHUS, additional patients may be added per cohort.

NM8074 will be administered as an intravenous infusion. In Cohort 1, all subjects will be administered 20 mg/kg of NM8074 intravenously every two weeks for a total of 7 doses from Day 1 to Day 85 of the Treatment Period. Patients in Cohort 2 will receive weekly doses of 10 mg/kg for a total of 4 doses from Day 1 to Day 22 followed by biweekly doses at 20 mg/kg for a total of 5 doses from Day 29 to Day 85.

Change from Baseline or Percent Change from Baseline in quality of life (QoL) Assessed via the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue Scale, Version 4.
The FACIT-fatigue scale is a 13-item patient-reported measure of fatigue with a 7-day recall period. Items are scored on a 0 - 4 response scale ranging from "Not at all" to "Very much so". All items are summed to create a single fatigue score with a range from 0 to 52 with a better quality of life indicated by a higher score.
Time frame: Baseline through Study Day 120
Change from Baseline or Percent Change from Baseline in Quality of Life (QoL) Assessed via the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 Scale (QLQ- C30), Version 3.0
All EORTC QLQ-C30 scales and single-item measures range from 0 to 100. This includes 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting), 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), single-item questions addressing symptoms like insomnia, dyspnea, loss of appetite, and others that are commonly reported by cancer patients, and the perceived financial impact of the disease. A higher score is associated with a greater quality of life for global health status.
