Title: An Open-Label, Multi-Center Controlled Clinical Trial of Eculizumab in Adolescent Patients With Plasma Therapy-Resistant Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS)
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether eculizumab is safe and effective in the treatment of adolescent patients with plasma therapy-resistant Atypical Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome (aHUS).


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:
