Retrospective Analysis of the Efficiency of Caplacizumab in the Treatment of aTTP

Recruiting
Conditions
Acquired Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04985318
Lead Sponsor
University of Cologne
Brief Summary

The objective of this national, prospective, multi-centre observational study is to describe the prescription rational and practice in Germany, confirm the efficacy of caplacizumab in a real-world setting, and identify predicting factors in iTTP-patients with regard to persistent autoimmune activity, therapy guidance and risk of complications. The rational is to develop new treatment algorithms that optimize overall patient outcome and reduce treatment cost.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Treatment of aTTP with caplacizumabEnrollment

Description of the prescription rationale and practice of caplacizumab in the treatment of aTTP

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Stabilization of thrombocyteEnrollment

Documentation of the efficacy of caplacizumab in the treatment of aTTP outside of clinical trials (real-world data) using by means of stabilization of thrombocyte. Thrombocyte stabilization is defined as thrombocyte \> 150 x 10E9/L

Normalization of haptoglobinEnrollment

Documentation of the efficacy of caplacizumab in the treatment of aTTP outside of clinical trials (real-world data) using by means of normalization of haptoglobin. Normalization of haptoglobin is defined as haptoglobin above lower limit of normal

Effect of caplacizumab on adjunct treatments with PEXEnrollment

Descriptions of the effect of caplacizumab on dose, duration and number and severity of adverse events of therapeutic plasma exchange therapy (PEX)

Normalization of LDHEnrollment

Documentation of the efficacy of caplacizumab in the treatment of aTTP outside of clinical trials (real-world data) using by means of normalization of Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Normalization of LDH is defined as LDH below upper limit of normal
