NCT ID NCT06291025

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tests whether a simpler treatment for immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) works as well as the standard approach. Instead of daily plasma exchange (an invasive procedure), patients receive plasma infusions, immune-suppressing drugs, and caplacizumab. The goal is to reduce complications and burden while still controlling the disease. About 131 adults with iTTP will take part.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult patient ≥ 18 years; * Clinical diagnosis of iTTP based on standard clinical and laboratory criteria (French Score ≥ 2): i.e., thrombotic microangiopathy syndrome with platelet count ≤ 30 G/L and serum creatinine ≤ 200 μmol/L; it is not necessary to have the laboratory result confirming the severe ADAMTS13 deficiency for inclusion of patient \[32\] (For patient with previous TTPflare, French score can be \< 2); * Patient having read and understood the information letter and signed the Informed Consent Form. If the patient is unable to express his consent, the consent will be signed by his representative ((1) the trusted person, or failing that, (2) a family member, or (3) a close relative of the person concerned). In this case, consent to continue the study will subsequently be requested from the patient (article L1122-1-1 of the CSP); * Patient affiliated with, or beneficiary of a social security (national health insurance) plan; * For women: * Women of childbearing potential : * Effective contraception according to WHO definition (estrogen-progestin or intrauterine device or tubal ligation) since at least 1 month and; * Negative blood pregnancy test; * Women surgically sterile (absence of ovaries and/or uterus); * Postmenopausal women (non-medically induced amenorrhea for at least 12 months prior to the inclusion visit). Exclusion Criteria: * Platelet count \> 100 G/L before plasma treatment; * Patients with a French score \< 2 (a serum creatinine level \> 200 μmol/L and/or with a platelet count \> 30 G/L), in order to exclude possible cases of hemolytic uremic syndrome (except for patient with previous TTPflare, French score can be \< 2); * Other known causes of cytopenias and/or organ failure including but not limited to: uncontrolled cancer, chemotherapy, transplant, drugs, HIV at AIDS stage; * Patients with a severe neurological disorder i.e. seizure, coma, focal deficiency, trouble of consciousness; * Pregnant women (positive result from a blood pregnancy test) or patients with an imminent project of pregnancy; breastfeeding women (due to lack of pharmacological data for caplacizumab during pregnancy and breastfeeding); * Weight \> 100KG; * Congenital TTP; * Clinically significant active bleeding or high risk of bleeding (excluding thrombocytopenia); * Chronic treatment with anticoagulant that cannot be interrupted safely, including but not limited to: vitamin K antagonists, direct oral anticoagulant, low molecular weight heparin or heparin; * Malignant hypertension; * Contra-indication to CABLIVI 10 mg powder and solvent for solution for injection: hypersensitivity to caplacizumab or to any of the excipients; * Contra-indication to Plasma treatment; * Contra-indication to corticosteroid (= ((methyl)prednisone or (methyl)prednisolone)) or excipients; * Contra-indication to rituximab or excipients and to its premedication; * Person deprived of liberty by administrative or judicial decision or placed under judicial protection (guardianship or supervision); * Participation in another drug interventional clinical trial within 30 days prior to inclusion and during the study.
