Acquired Aplastic Anemia. Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Prospective Randomized Multicenter Study Comparing Different Dosages of Rabbit Antithymocyte Globulin (Thymoglobuline) in Patients With Severe Aplastic Anemia
The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of immunosuppressive therapy (IST) using rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) (Thymoglobuline, Genzyme) for patients with very severe aplastic anemia (VSAA) and severe aplastic anemia (SAA) as a primary therapy. The primary endpoint is the response rate (complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)) at day 180 after the start of IST. Secondary endpoints include evaluation of the presence and frequency of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-reactivation and EBV-associated lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV-LPD), Cytomegalovirus(CMV)-reactivation and CMV associated diseases, the response rate (CR+PR) on Day 360 after the start of IST, relapse rate and overall survival.
