Brief Summary
The aim of this non-interventional secondary use of data study is to evaluate hematological response in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and anemia in the 6-month period after initiation of anti-C5 antibody treatment using real-world data obtained from multiple datasets. The results will be used to contextualize results from the APPOINT-PNH (NCT04820530) trial with iptacopan.

Study Arms (1)
Real-world cohort
The real-world cohort consists of patients with diagnosis of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and anemia initiating anti-C5 therapy.
Interventions
Anti-C5 antibody treatment (i.e., eculizumab and ravulizumab)
Eligibility Criteria
The real-world cohort consists of patients with diagnosis of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and anemia initiating anti-C5 therapy. Patient data originate from the Hôpital Saint-Louis, France and St. James's University Hospital, Leeds, United Kingdom.
You may qualify if:
- Incident users of anti-C5 antibody treatment (i.e., first use of anti-C5 antibody with no evidence of use prior to that)
- Confirmed clinical diagnosis of PNH (including PNH clone size \>10% in RBC percent/white blood cell (WBC) percent)
- Adult patients ≥18 years of age
- Baseline Hb \<10 g/dL.
You may not qualify if:
- Bone marrow transplantation within one year prior to initiating anti-C5 treatment
- Hereditary complement deficiency
- Reticulocyte count \<60x10\^9/L.
- Pregnancy
