Massive study aims to unlock secrets of rare blood disorder
NCT ID NCT07205861
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study reviews medical records from over 1,200 people with immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP), a rare and life-threatening blood disorder. The goal is to understand long-term health problems, such as heart disease and thinking issues, that survivors face. By analyzing past data, researchers hope to find better ways to manage the disease and improve quality of life for patients.

Who is studied
The study population consists of all patients in France diagnosed with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), primarily the autoimmune subtype, between October 1, 2000, and June 1, 2024, who received care within the national network of the French Reference Center for Thrombotic Microangiopathies (CNR-MAT). This includes adults and children with autoimmune who have at least one year of follow-up. Patients are recruited from 6 core and 25 competence centers covering mainland France and overseas territories, ensuring nationwide representation. Data are collected from hospital and consultation records, and only patients who do not object to data reuse are included. This approach ensures a comprehensive, multicentric, and representative cohort for rare disease research.
