Overview
This study is researching an experimental drug called ALN-CFB. The study is focused on people with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) who are currently taking a complement component C5 inhibitor ("C5-inhibitor") and continue to have anemia (low red blood cell count).
The aim of the study is to see how tolerable ALN-CFB is compared to placebo. A placebo looks like the study drug but does not contain any drug.
The study is looking at several other research questions, including:
- What side effects may happen from taking ALN-CFB
- How much ALN-CFB is in the blood at different times
- How much Complement Factor B (CFB) protein levels in the blood are affected by ALN-CFB
Description
The protocol will be amended to describe Part B of the study after Part A data have been analyzed.
