简要总结
This is an interventional drug study designed as a pilot for a randomized clinical trial, aimed at assessing the effect of hydroxychloroquine on the incidence rate of thrombosis in patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome as the main outcome, as well as the safety of hydroxychloroquine administration in this population. In addition, the effect of hydroxychloroquine on antiphospholipid antibody titers will be assessed.
详细描述
Patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (either thrombotic or obstetric) on regular follow-up at our outpatient rheumatology department and being treated with standard care (systemic anticoagulants and/or antiplatelet agents), are randomized to receive either hydroxychloroquine plus standard care, or standard care alone, on a 1:1 ratio using block size 2 randomization, after exclusion of patients with contraindications to hydroxychloroquine or prior hydroxychloroquine use within 12 months of consideration for enrollment. Patients are monitored clinically every 3 months and the development of thrombosis and/or adverse effects attributable to hydroxychloroquine is recorded. Antiphospholipid antibody titers (anti-cardiolipin immunoglobulin G (IgG)/Immunoglobulin M (IgM) and anti-beta2-glycoprotein I IgG/IgM isotypes) are measured semi-annually. Intention-to-treat survival analysis is applied for assessing the effect of hydroxychloroquine on the incidence of thrombosis. Longitudinal mixed linear models are applied for assessing the effect of hydroxychloroquine on longitudinal titers of antiphospholipid antibodies.
