TMA is defined by the presence of hemolytic anemia (destruction of red blood cells), low platelets, and organ damage due to the formation of microscopic blood clots in capillaries and small arteries.
In the CRL, FDA expressed difficulty in estimating the treatment effect of narsoplimab in HSCT-TMA and asked for additional information to support regulatory approval.
No chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC), safety, or non-clinical issues precluding approval were raised in the CRL.
