Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Children aged 1–5 with clinically and genetically confirmed CD55-deficient CHAPLE disease who have active disease and whose guardians can comply with clinic visits and required vaccinations are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without CD55-deficient CHAPLE disease, those with a history of meningococcal infection, or those unwilling/unable to receive required vaccinations are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies
This phase 4 interventional study administers pozelimab to young children with genetically confirmed CD55-deficient CHAPLE disease to monitor safety and tolerability. Participants attend regular clinic visits for blood draws to measure drug levels, complement activity (C5 blockade and CH50), albumin and other protein levels, and anti-drug antibodies, while investigators record adverse events. Enrollment requires documented or protocol-administered meningococcal vaccination and, where applicable, Haemophilus influenzae and pneumococcal vaccination before dosing. The trial is sponsored by Regeneron and conducted at Marmara University Hospital in Istanbul.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, pozelimab could reduce life-threatening gastrointestinal and vascular complications in young children by controlling complement overactivation.
How similar studies have gone: Other anti-C5 therapies such as eculizumab have shown benefit in CHAPLE and related complement disorders, though published pediatric data for pozelimab specifically are limited.
