Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will collect clinical response data on participants who were already treated with eculizumab for at least 26 weeks and who started ravulizumab treatment as a specific therapeutic strategy as per ordinary clinical practice.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is an Italian multi-center, observational (non-interventional), cohort study composed of both retrospective and prospective observation periods on the same Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) participants. After the First Participant In from different Italian study centers, participants will be consecutively enrolled for 9 months and they will be observed for 52 weeks after the start of ravulizumab.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Body weight of 10 kilogram or above

* Clinically stable after having been treated with eculizumab for at least the past 6 months
* Participant already assigned to ravulizumab treatment as a specific therapeutic strategy within the current routine clinical practice (this decision has to be made independently and before the enrolment of the participant in the study)
* Vaccinated against Neisseria meningitidis (according to Summary of Product Characteristics) \< 3 years before dosing or at least 2 weeks prior to initiating ravulizumab unless the risk of delaying ravulizumab therapy outweighs the risk of developing a meningococcal infection

Exclusion Criteria

* History of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (evaluated at baseline)
* Known pregnant or breastfeeding participant (evaluated at baseline)
* Participant unable to read and write in Italian language and to autonomously fill in questionnaires and scales (evaluated at enrolment)
* Participants enrolled in any clinical study receiving experimental treatments for PNH (evaluated at baseline)
* Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipient of the study drug.
* Participants with unresolved N. meningitidis infection at treatment initiation
