Autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura

This study tested an extra dose of the HIPRA COVID-19 vaccine in 241 adults with conditions like HIV, kidney disease, or autoimmune disorders that weaken the immune system. The goal was to see if the booster raises antibody levels against virus variants and remains safe. Research…

This study tested a drug called avatrombopag in 19 Japanese adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where the immune system destroys platelets, raising bleeding risk. The goal was to see if the drug could safely increase platelet counts over 26 weeks. Parti…

This Phase 3 trial tested an oral drug called HMPL-523 (sovleplenib) in 272 adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where the immune system destroys platelets, causing bleeding risks. Participants who had not responded well to prior treatments received eith…

This study tested a new medicine called HBM9161, given as a weekly shot under the skin, for adults with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) — a condition where the immune system destroys platelets, raising the risk of bleeding. The trial included 36 people who had not responded…

This study tested a freeze-dried plasma product that can be mixed with water in 6 minutes, avoiding the long thaw time of standard plasma. It included 42 trauma patients with severe bleeding who needed blood transfusions. The goal was to see if faster plasma delivery could improv…

This early-phase trial tested a new drug called VIS171 in 61 people: first in healthy volunteers, then in patients with autoimmune diseases. The main goal was to check safety and how the body processes the drug. No results on whether it actually helps the disease are available ye…

This phase 3 trial tested the long-term safety and effectiveness of efgartigimod, an IV drug, in 101 adults with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where the immune system destroys platelets, causing bleeding. Participants received efgartigimod infusions over 52 w…

This study tested two low-dose rituximab schedules in 100 adults with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition causing low platelet counts and bleeding. The goal was to see which regimen better raises platelets and controls bleeding. Participants had failed or relapsed on stand…

This study tested a drug called lusutrombopag in 17 Chinese adults with persistent or chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where the immune system destroys platelets, raising bleeding risk. Participants had failed standard treatments and took the drug for up to 12 w…

This study tested a pathogen-reduced version of cryoprecipitate, a blood product that helps blood clot, in 208 patients undergoing liver transplant or heart surgery. The goal was to see if having this product readily available could stop bleeding early and reduce the need for oth…

This completed phase 3 trial tested whether adding all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) to eltrombopag works better than eltrombopag alone for adults with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) that did not respond to steroids. The study enrolled 96 participants and measured sustained platelet …

This study looked at a device called GLOBAFFIN that filters antibodies from the blood to help people with autoimmune diseases. It involved 34 adults and measured how much harmful antibodies were removed and if patients felt better. The goal was to see if the device is safe and wo…

This study looked at whether treating Helicobacter pylori (a common stomach infection) with antibiotics can raise platelet counts in people with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where the immune system destroys platelets, causing bleeding and bruising. Researchers enrol…

This study looked at whether a diet low in salt and sugar can reduce common side effects of corticosteroid treatment, such as weight gain, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Fifty adults with autoimmune diseases or asthma who were starting high-dose corticosteroids were randomly …

This study looked at 719 people, including patients with autoimmune connective tissue diseases like myositis, their blood relatives, and healthy volunteers. Researchers collected blood samples and medical histories to find genetic and environmental factors that may trigger these …

This study follows children in France diagnosed with severe autoimmune cytopenia—conditions where the immune system attacks blood cells. Researchers will track their health over time to see who achieves remission and what factors influence their recovery. The goal is to better un…

This completed study looked at blood samples from 70 children and adults newly diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), a condition that causes easy bruising and bleeding. Researchers wanted to see if certain immune and blood markers could predict whether the disease…

This study looked at over 13,000 people with chronic inflammatory rheumatism or autoimmune diseases who had or were suspected to have COVID-19. Researchers tracked how many developed severe COVID-19 requiring intensive care or leading to death. They also examined risk factors lik…

This completed study followed 73 people with autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis or multiple sclerosis who were starting treatment with rituximab. The goal was to track how many developed serious infections and to understand what factors increase that risk. Researchers …

This study followed 37 adults over age 60 with unexplained low platelet counts to see if certain tests could predict immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Participants had blood tests, bone marrow biopsies, and a short course of the steroid prednisone. The goal was to find which…

This study looked at 33 adults who had both immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) — a condition where the immune system destroys platelets — and cancer. Researchers wanted to see if treating the cancer could also improve ITP. They also investigated whether cancer cells might mimic platel…

This study looked at how chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) affects thinking skills and fatigue in adults. Researchers measured brain function and inflammation using blood tests and questionnaires in 97 patients. The goal was to better understand these connections, not to test…

This early-phase study tested the safety and tolerability of a new drug called LAD191 in 69 healthy adults and people with an autoimmune disease. Researchers gave single or multiple doses to see how the body processes the drug and if it causes side effects. The goal was to gather…
