Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this human study was to evaluate the association between the specificity of anti-platelet autoantibodies and response to IVIG treatment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a common autoimmune bleeding disorder, in which platelet surface GPIIb/IIIa and GPIb/IX are the two most frequently targeted autoantigens. Our previous studies in animal models of ITP demonstrated that intravenous immunoglobulin G (IVIG) could protect against anti-GPIIb/IIIa-mediated thrombocytopenia but failed to ameliorate ITP induced by most anti-GPIb/IX antibodies. The objective of this human study was to evaluate the association between the specificity of anti-platelet autoantibodies and response to IVIG treatment.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* (1) the diagnosis of ITP was based on the presence of isolated thrombocytopenia and the absence of any obvious initiating and/or underlying cause of the thrombocytopenia in accordance with the recently released international consensus guidelines,(2) a diagnosis was established during the 4 weeks prior to initiation of IVIG treatment, (3) age ≥ 18 years, (4) a platelet count of ≤ 20 × 109/L, and (5) a bleeding score ≥ 9 at the time of admission according to the clinical scoring system described by Khellaf et al. to assess the severity of hemorrhage.

Exclusion Criteria

* a history of any ITP-specific treatment administered prior to or concomitantly with the IVIG
