| Main Objective: Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of eculizumab in symptomatic or transfusion-dependent patients with untreated or refractory hemolytic cold agglutinin disease (CAD);Secondary Objective: Effect of eculizumab in hemolytic cold agglutinin disease on lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) change, transfusion avoidance, PRBC units transfused, change in hemoglobin levels, haptoglobin, hemopexin, free hemoglobin, reticulocytes, SF-36V2 QLQ, FACIT-F SCALE version 4, Six-Minute Walk Test, circulatory symptoms and thrombosis record from baseline to 26 weeks. Exploratory endpoints include: direct agglutination test (DAT), serum monoclonal immunoglobulin level, cold agglutinin (IgM or IgA) titer and thermal amplitude measures from randomization to 26 weeks, presence of a clonal B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder defined by monoclonal IgM? or IgA? band by serum electrophoresis and immunofixation, immunophenotyping of bone marrow, immunophenotyping of peripheral blood and blood pressure. ;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoint for this study is lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) change from baseline to 26 weeks. | — |
