Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT06479863
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This is a pilot study of 10 patients to receive Pozelimab 200mg/Cemdisiran 200 mg SC injections every 4 weeks for 104 weeks. SC injections will be administered by the study staff and the patient will be monitored for 30 minutes after the initial first injection. During the remainder of the study, injections can be administered at home by the patient or caregiver after injection training provided by the study staff. Designated persons will be observed to confirm their ability to perform the injections. The dosing window of the study treatment is within ±7 days from the scheduled dose date.
