Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate the overall safety and tolerability of ARC1779, a therapeutic oligonucleotide ("aptamer") in patients with three types of von Willebrand Factor related platelet disorders.


Clinical Trial Description

ARC1779 Injection will be investigated in 4 cohorts of TTP patients as an uncontrolled, open-label study. Patients with vWD-2b will be enrolled in an additional cohort in a randomized, blinded, double-dummy, and placebo-controlled study.

Collectively, patients representing 3 different vWF-related platelet function disorders: TTP in remission, acute TTP, and vWD-2b will be treated in a total of 5 cohorts. Three cohorts will consist of patients who are status post an episode of TTP ("TTP Remission Cohorts") and will be treated with ARC1779 Injection in a dose- and duration-escalation design. In parallel, a single cohort of patients with acute TTP ("Acute TTP Cohort") will be treated according to an individual patient titration-to-response paradigm. This cohort will be opened for enrollment at the beginning of the study and closed after all of the other cohorts are completed. Also in parallel, a single cohort of patients with vWD-2b ("vWD-2b Cohort") will begin enrollment at the commencement of the study and continue independently of the course of the TTP Remission Cohorts. Up to 4 patients will be included in each of the TTP cohorts. The vWD-2b Cohort is expected to consist of up to 12 vWD-2b patients. ;
