The objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of INM004 in pediatric patients with Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome associated to infection by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC-HUS).
The primary objective will be to evaluate the efficacy of INM004, added to the standard of care, as a treatment for STEC-HUS in the amelioration of renal function. Secondary objectives * To evaluate the efficacy of INM004 in the reduction of mortality. * To evaluate the efficacy of INM004 in the prevention and reduction of extrarenal complications. * To evaluate the efficacy of INM004 in the improvement of TMA laboratory parameters. * To evaluate the efficacy of INM004 in the reduction of hospital stay days. * To evaluate the safety of INM004 * To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of INM004 * To evaluate the kinetics of Stx

Two doses of Anti-Shiga Toxin Hyperimmune Equine Immunoglobulin F(ab´)2 fragments at a dosage of 4 mg/kg of body weight, 24 hours apart. Each vial contains 25 mg of protein/ml. Therefore, each subject must receive 0.16 ml/kg per dose. The vial volume will be reconstituted in a 100 ml (for subjects with a body weight of 20 kg or more) or 50 ml (for subjects under 20 kg of body weight) infusion bag. It will be administered as an intravenous infusion using an infusion pump over a period of 50 minutes. In subjects with a BMI over 30 kg/m2, infusion will be performed over a period of 100 minutes
Two doses of placebo, 24 hours apart. The placebo solution has the same composition of excipients as INM004 without the active pharmaceutical ingredient, and its appearance is identical. Each subject must receive 0.16 ml/kg of placebo solution per dose. The vial volume will be reconstituted in a 100 ml (for subjects with a body weight of 20 kg or more) or 50 ml (for subjects under 20 kg of body weight) infusion bag. It will be administered as an intravenous infusion using an infusion pump over a period of 50 minutes. In subjects with a BMI over 30 kg/m2, infusion will be performed over a period of 100 minutes
Time to recovery of renal function during the acute phase
Time (days) to achieve a glomerular filtration rate greater than or equal to the lower limit of normal (according to age, height, and sex) and a serum creatinine lower than or equal to the upper limit of normal (according to age and sex), both measured in the absence of dialysis.
Time frame: 28 days
Short-term recovery of renal function
Proportion of subjects with a glomerular filtration rate ≥ lower limit of normal (according to age, height and sex) and serum creatinine ≤ upper limit of normal (according to age and sex), both measured in the absence of dialysis.
Time frame: 90 days
MAKE 90
Proportion of subjects meeting any of the following criteria at day 90: death, dialysis requirement after 24 hours post-randomization, dialysis of more than 10 days, or persistent decline in renal function (without recovery of glomerular filtration rate according to age, height, and sex).
Time frame: 90 days
Dialysis longer than 10 days
Proportion of dialyzed subjects requiring more than 10 days of dialysis
Time frame: 90 days
Dialysis requirement
Proportion of subjects requiring dialysis after 24 hours post-randomization
Time frame: 90 days
Mortality
Proportion of subjects who die from any cause.
Time frame: 90 days
