About this study

The aim of this large French multicentric retrospective study was to compare the efficacy and safety of two (the standard and the Rheumatoid arthritis) rituximab regimens in adult's immune thrombocytopenia .

Read the detailed description

Every adult (age ≥ 18 years) seen in one of the 3 participating centre (dijon, Marseille, Mondor) over a 7-year period (2005-2012) with a definite diagnosis of primary ITP according to the American Society Hematology guidelines who received RTX regardless the regimen could be included.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT01727232
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Standard regimenPatients received the standard regimen (i.e 4 weekly infusions of 375 mg/m2)of rituximab
Rheumatoid arthritis regimenPatients received the RA regimen (i.e two infusions of 1000 mg, 2 weeks apart) of rituximab

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary end point of the study was to assess the response rate to treatment 1 year after the first rituximab infusion.

    A complete response (CR) was defined as a platelet count >100 x 109/l and a response (R): by a platelet count >30 x 109/l with a least a doubling of the baseline value without any rescue intervention within 8 weeks before assessment, and no response (NR) was defined as a platelet count lower than 30 x 109/

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The response rate 3months, and at the last follow-up after the first rituximab infusion. Variable associated with RTX response.

    Measured: 3 months, one year, last follow-up

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary end point of the study was to assess the response rate to treatment 1 year after the first rituximab infusion. (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
