The safety and efficacy profile of eculizumab in myasthenic crisis: a prospective small case series
Eculizumab has improved recovery from ventilatory support in myasthenic crisis (MC) cases. However, the safety and efficacy profiles from prospective studies are still lacking. This study aimed to explore eculizumab’s safety and efficacy in a prospective

Riliprubart is a second‐generation, humanized immunoglobulin G4 that inhibits only the activated form of the C1s component of the proximal classical complement pathway. The clinical studies of riliprubart conducted thus far for the treatment of cold agglutinin disease (CAD), a rare autoimmune disease, include a Phase 1 first‐in‐human study in healthy ...

Mechanism-based strategies for the management of autoimmunity and immune dysregulation in primary immunodeficiencies [PDF]
A broad spectrum of autoimmunity is now well described in patients with primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs). Management of autoimmune disease in the background of PID is particularly challenging given the seemingly discordant goals of immune support and ...

Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Unraveling the Role of Allo-Antibodies and Transplant Injury. [PDF]
Alloimmunity driving rejection in the context of solid organ transplantation can be grossly divided into mechanisms predominantly driven by either T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) and antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR), though the co-existence of both ...

Summary Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare, life‐threatening disorder characterized by complement‐mediated haemolysis, leading to anaemia and thrombosis. HRS‐5965 is a novel, oral, selective complement factor B inhibitor targeting the alternative pathway, potentially reducing both intra‐ and extravascular haemolysis.
