Brief Summary

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

This study evaluates iptacopan effectiveness and safety in routine clinical practice, with a focus on hematological response, transfusion avoidance, and patient-reported outcomes.

The primary objective of the REAL-CARE study is to is to assess the long-term hematological response following iptacopan initiation. This will be assessed through the absolute change in hemoglobin (Hb) levels at 12 months post-initiation, and the proportion of patients who remain free from red blood cell (RBC) transfusions, prescribed as per local requirement and based on Investigator's judgment, from Day 14 through Month 12 after starting iptacopan.

Detailed Description

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

This is a local, multicenter, observational study with retrospective, retro-prospective and prospective cohorts. Adult patients with PNH either naïve to iptacopan or transitioning from the Managed Access Program (MAP) starting from January 2023 will be enrolled. Primary data will be collected prospectively; secondary data will be retrieved retrospectively from patients previously treated under MAP. A mix of primary and secondary data will be collected in retro-prospective patients. Patients will be indexed on the date of iptacopan initiation and will be followed up for 24 months or until iptacopan discontinuation (due to occurrence of an adverse event, lack of efficacy etc), clinical decision, death, administrative issues, consent withdrawal or loss to follow-up, whichever comes first. The enrollment period is planned to last 15 months, with potential adjustments based on enrollment progress. No treatment decision will be influenced by study participation.

No extra visits, examinations, or procedures are imposed. Questionnaires should be collected at the indicated timepoints whenever possible, but, since the administration of the questionnaires represents an additional procedure not included in routine clinical care, these timepoints are considered indicative only, and patients will not be recalled specifically to complete questionnaires if a routine clinical visit is not scheduled.
