Study to Assess Safety, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Crovalimab in Healthy Volunteers and Participants With Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria
An Adaptive Phase I/II Study to Assess Safety, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Crovalimab in Healthy Volunteers and Patients With Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH)
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Sept 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This is a Phase I/II, first-in-human study consisting of four sequential parts and an open-label extension (OLE). The safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single doses of crovalimab will be evaluated in healthy volunteers (HV) during part 1. The safety, tolerability, PK and PD of multiple doses of crovalimab will be evaluated in participants with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) in parts 2, 3, 4, and OLE of the study. Efficacy of crovalimab will be evaluated in Parts 2, 3, and 4.
