Filter by:The objective of this study is to provide simple and relevant clinical and biological elements to distinguish a possible Congenital Thrombocytopenia from a Chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura .
This study aims to determine the hemato-immunological parameters predictive of the evolution of a Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) towards chronicity, and to identify possible differences between the child and the adult.
Fetal and Neonatal Alloimmune Thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is the most common cause of severe thrombocytopenia in otherwise healthy born neonates. FNAIT results in a risk of bleeding the most severe complication being intracranial haemorraghes (ICH). Bleedings can be prevented by effective antental treatment. In the absence of screening programs this treatment is too late to prevent the first affected child. The investigators aim to identify the pregnancies at risk and describe the incidence and natural course of this disease. In this way fetuses at risk can be identified in the future and timely antenatal treatment can be initiated.
Study in patients with persistent and chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP), who have failed to respond or relapsed after prior therapy, with a platelet count <30,000/µL. Patient will be randomly assigned in 2 groups with two dose levels of SKI-O-703 200mg BID, 400 mg BID, and placebo; administered orally twice a day.
Thrombocytopenia is a frequent and serious adverse event in patients treated with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) for refractory cardiogenic shock. Similarly to postcardiac surgery patients, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) could represent the causative underlying mechanism. However, the epidemiology as well as related mortality regarding HIT and VA-ECMO remains largely unknown. The investigators aimed to define the prevalence and associated 90-day mortality of HIT diagnosed under VA-ECMO.This retrospective study included patients under VA-ECMO from 20 French centers between 2012 and 2016.
The objective of the study is to obtain the clinical data from patients who received a biological prosthesis in aortic or mitral position, in order to evaluate the occurrence of peri-operative thrombocytopenia. The aim of the study is to analyze the eventual clinical impact of the phenomenon (re-operation for bleeding, blood transfusion) and the mortality rate. This is a multicentre retrospective, observentional clinical study. This study will enroll up to 5000 patients since 2000 to date.
Current first line treatments for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) usually have transient effects and prolonged platelet response rate off therapy remains low. The aim is to evaluate whether a 12-week course of eltrombopag plus pulsed dexamethasone as first line therapy can increase the proportion of patients with prolonged response. Diagnosis of ITP is established according to the American Society of Hematology guidelines. Eligible ITP subjects have platelet counts <30×109/L or counts <50×109/L and significant bleeding symptoms (WHO bleeding scale 2 or above). Subjects must have no prior ITP treatment except platelet transfusions. Treatment consists of eltrombopag 25-75 mg daily according to platelet response for 12 weeks plus pulsed dexamethasone, 40 mg daily for 4 consecutive days every 4 weeks for 1-3 courses. The primary endpoint is prolonged response rate which was defined as the proportion of enrolled subjects maintaining platelet counts >50×109/L for more than 6 months without any ITP therapy after completion of 12-week therapy.
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune disease (annual incidence: 3-4/105 inhabitants) leading to an increased risk of spontaneous bleeding. ITP is said "primary" when not associated to other systemic disease (lymphoma, systemic autoimmune disease, chronic infectious disease…). First-line treatment is based on corticosteroids. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is added in case of serious bleeding. In about 70% of adult cases, ITP becomes persistent or chronic (lasting >3 months and >12 months, respectively). Second-line treatments are then indicated. Among them, thrombopoietin-receptor agonists (TPO-RAs), romiplostim and eltrombopag are increasingly used. Splenectomy is used as ultimate treatment. Paradoxically, the risk of thrombosis is higher in ITP patients in comparison with the general population, due to the release of young hyperactive platelets from bone marrow. The incidence of thrombosis in ITP patients has been estimated between 0.5 and 3/100 patients-years. However, risk factors for thrombosis in ITP are not known, except splenectomy that is used in very few patients now. The role of other ITP treatments in thrombosis occurrence has been evoked, particularly for corticosteroids and IVIg. TPO-RAs have been associated with a risk of thrombosis in clinical trials and pharmacovigilance studies, even in case of low or normal platelet count. However, this risk has not been measured in the real-life practice, adjusted for other risk factors for thrombosis.
The XIENCE 28 USA Study is prospective, single arm, multi-center, open label, non-randomized trial to evaluate safety of 1-month (as short as 28 days) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in subjects at high risk of bleeding (HBR) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the approved XIENCE family (XIENCE Xpedition Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System [EECSS], XIENCE Alpine EECSS and XIENCE Sierra EECSS) of coronary drug-eluting stents.
Patients with severe immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) present with similarly low platelet counts but varying bleeding symptoms, making it difficult to predict the disease course and to decide on an appropriate treatment plan. In a single-center study, platelet parameters including the immature platelet fraction, the absolute immature platelet count , and functional response markers were found to be significantly associated with patient bleeding severity, independent of platelet count. This study aims to confirm and replicate these findings in a multi-center patient population and to investigate the use of these parameters to better predict disease severity and bleeding events.
