摘要
In this issue of Blood, Roth et al show in a phase 1/2 trial that crovalimab, a subcutaneously administered monoclonal antibody that targets C5, is safe and effective in treating paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).(1) Crovalimab targets a C5 epitope that is different from the IV C5 inhibitors, eculizumab and ravulizumab. Crovalimab is administered subcutaneously every 4 weeks.
