Official title A Trial to Investigate Benralizumab in Children With Eosinophilic Diseases
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06512883
What this study is testing
What is Benralizumab?
Benralizumab is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (egpa).
Also referred to as FASENRA.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The main purpose of study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of benralizumab.
