Clinical Trial Summary

Open, multi-center, observational, prospective cohort study, only disease-indicated treatment, in patients with clinically diagnosed acquired and congenital TTP regardless of gender, ethnicity, and comorbidities, over the age of 18 for 1.) prospective investigation of patients with TTP in an acute bout and during long-term follow and 2.) assessment of prevalence, course of disease, success of therapy, possible triggers for relapses and possibilities for better diagnosis and prognosis.

Description:

1.) Identification of predictive markers for morbidity and mortality in acute TTP and in TTP relapses using a prospective long-term registry and 2.) Investigation of the pathophysiological processes in acute bouts and in remission by recording the clinical symptoms and diagnostics for a better understanding of the course of the disease, optimization of diagnostic procedures and their correlation with the clinical course, recording of therapy response of all therapeutic options in acute bouts, observation of current treatment options to evaluate outcome and prognostic markers and recording of clinical and laboratory chemical data during follow-up to assess long-term morbidity.
