Clinical Study
Ravulizumab: A Study Drug for Infants, Children, and Young Adults Ages 1 month to 18 years old with Thrombotic Microangiopathy (TMA) after Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT
Thrombotic Microangiopathy (TMA) is blood clots that form in the body from damaged cells. Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is when other cells are used from a persons body to create normal blood cells. Ravulizumab is a study drug to help infants, children, and young adults ages 1 month to 18 years old with this disease after having HSCT. Research is needed to learn if the drug is safe and effective. The information we gain may aid patients.
