Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

This study is researching an experimental treatment combination with two experimental drugs called pozelimab and cemdisiran.

 

The study is focused on people with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).

 

The aim of this study is to see how safe and effective the pozelimab + cemdisiran combination is for people with PNH in the long term. The pozelimab + cemdisiran combination may be referred to as study drugs in this section.

 

This study is looking at several other research questions, including:

- How effective is the pozelimab + cemdisiran combination?

- What side effects may happen from taking the study drugs?

- How much of each study drug is in your blood at different times?

- Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drugs (which could make the drugs less effective or could lead to side effects).
