A Trial of Caplacizumab in Japanese Patients With Acquired Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (aTTP)

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Interventions
Drug: Plasma exchange (PE)
Drug: Corticosteroid treatment (Methylprednisolone or prednisolone)
Drug: Immunosuppressive treatment (eg, rituximab)
Registration Number
NCT04074187
Lead Sponsor
Sanofi
Brief Summary

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the effect of caplacizumab on prevention of recurrence of aTTP (proportion of participants with a recurrence of aTTP) during the overall study period.

Secondary Objectives:

* To evaluate effect of caplacizumab on

* prevention of recurrence of TTP (the number of recurrences of TTP) during overall study period.

* a composite endpoint consisting of aTTP-related mortality, recurrence of aTTP and major thromboembolic events during study drug treatment

* restoring platelet counts as a measure of prevention of further microvascular thrombosis

* refractory disease

* biomarkers of organ damage: LDH, cardiac troponin I, serum creatinine

* plasma exchange (PE) parameters (days of PE and volume of plasma used), days in intensive care unit, days in hospital

* cognitive status of Japanese patients

* To evaluate safety profile of caplacizumab in Japanese patients

* To evaluate effect of caplacizumab on pharmacodynamic (PD) markers in Japanese patients

* To evaluate pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of caplacizumab in Japanese patients

* To evaluate immunogenicity of caplacizumab in Japanese patients

Detailed Description

Study duration per participant is approximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months in case of treatment extension and recurrence during the study drug treatment period.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of participants with a recurrence of acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP)Approximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

Proportion of participants with a recurrence of aTTP during the overall study period. The success criterion for this study is proportion of evaluable participants (per-protocol population) with a recurrence of aTTP during the overall study period to be 20% or less.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of participant who have a platelet count ≥150,000/μLApproximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

Proportion of participant who have a platelet count ≥150,000/μL on Day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and Day 10 and end of study drug treatment (ie, last weekly visit during the overall treatment period).

Number of recurrences of TTPApproximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

Number of recurrences of TTP during study drug treatment (including extensions) and follow-up, as well as during overall study period.

Proportion of participants with composite endpoint consisting of aTTP-related mortality, recurrence of aTTP and major thromboembolic eventsApproximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

Proportion of participants with TTP-related death, a recurrence of TTP, or at least one treatmentemergent major thromboembolic event (eg, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, pulmonary embolism or deep venous thrombosis \[DVT\]) during the overall treatment period (including extensions).

Number of days to plasma exchangeApproximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

The endpoint will be assessed in 4 time periods: daily PE period (the first daily PE period only), overall treatment period, follow-up period (of 4 weeks after stop of study drug treatment), and overall study period

Time to platelet count responseApproximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

Time to platelet count response, defined as initial platelet count ≥150,000/μL with subsequent stop of daily plasma exchange (PE) within 5 days.

Time to stop of daily plasma exchnage (PE)Approximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

Time to stop of daily PE

Change from baseline in the standardized mini mental state exam (SMMSE) total scoreApproximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

Change from baseline in SMMSE total score on Day 1, (Day 2, 3, 4 as optional) and Day 5 of daily Plasma Exchange (PE) period, and Weeks 1 and 5 of the 30-day postdaily PE period, and the first (7 days after last dosing) and final follow-up (28 days after last dosing) visit.

Pharmacodynamic (PD) markersApproximately 2 months up to approximately 6 months

PD parameters: von Willebrand factor antigen(vWF:Ag), coagulation factor VIII clotting activity (FVIII:C), von Willebrand factor ristocetin cofactor activity (vWF:RICO)
