The hazard ratio was reported as 0.32 with a 95% confidence interval of 0.23 to 0.44 and a p-value of less than 0.00001.

The analysis compared overall survival in 28 TA-TMA patients from Omeros's pivotal trial to that of more than 100 similarly high-risk TA-TMA patients in an external control registry who did not receive narsoplimab treatment. The patients in both cohorts had similar demographics and baseline characteristics.
TA-TMA is recognized as a devastating complication of stem cell transplantation that can lead to multi-organ failure and death. There is currently no approved therapy or standard of care for HSCT-TMA.
Narsoplimab, also known as OMS721, is a monoclonal antibody targeting MASP-2, a key enzyme in the lectin pathway of complement. The FDA has granted the drug breakthrough therapy and orphan drug designations for TA-TMA, and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has also granted orphan drug designation for its use in hematopoietic stem-cell transplant.
