About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Shiga Toxin Producing Bacterial Infection focused on measuring Shigamabs, Monoclonal, Antibodies, Shiga, Toxin, E.coli, HUS, Bloody, Diarrhea

Eligibility Criteria

6 Months - 18 Years (Child, Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Bloody diarrhea (by visual inspection) for no more than 36 hours prior to screening (signature of the informed consent).
  2. Detection of Shiga toxin (Stx1 and/or Stx2) in stool

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Laboratory findings compatible with development of at least two out of three following criteria that define Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS):

    Hemolytic Anemia: hematocrit < 30% with evidence of hemolysis (as indicated by Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) above the upper limit of normal for age or the finding of schistocytes on peripheral smear); Thrombocytopenia: platelet count <150 x 103/uL; Nephropathy: serum creatinine > Upper Limit Normal (ULN) adjusted for age and gender.

  2. Bloody-diarrhea suspected not to be caused by Shiga Toxin-Producing Bacteria (STPB) but by other organisms or preexisting diseases.
  3. Family history of proven or suspected hereditary Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) or thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP).
  4. History of chronic/recurrent hemolytic anemia or thrombocytopenia.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cαStx1 and cαStx2 administered concomitantly in children presenting early signs of Shiga Toxin-Producing Bacterial (STPB) Infection.
Detailed Description
Currently, there is no etiological treatment of STPB-induced HUS. Ideally, such treatment would be started in the early phase of the infection and would protect against both types of toxins and all of their variants. The chimeric anti-Shiga toxins 1 (cαStx1) and 2 (cαStx2) antibodies are intended to be administered as a single infusion and provide simultaneous protection against the two Shiga toxins (Stx1 and Stx2) by decreasing the incidence and severity of Shiga toxin-mediated clinical events including bloody diarrhea/hemorrhagic colitis and Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) and associated sequelae.
