Trial summary

Aims of the study : 1) To determine whether the presence of the V158 allele of Fc gammaRIIIA gene is associated with a better outcome of Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) in adults and especially with a higher response-rate to rituximab. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Fc Gamma RIIIA V/F158 Polymorphism and Auto-reactive B and T Cells Subsets in Adult's Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) and Correlations With Treatment

Aims of the study : 1) To determine whether the presence of the V158 allele of Fc gammaRIIIA gene is associated with a better outcome of Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) in adults and especially with a higher response-rate to rituximab. 2) To analyze the impact of therapy and especially rituximab on some B and T cells autoreactive subsets in the peripheral blood.

Inclusion criteria : age ≥ 18 years, primary ITP defined according to the recent consensual criteria (Rodeghiero F et al. Blood 2009), active ITP defined as an ITP with a platelet count < 50 x 109/L requiring treatment, informed consent. Main exclusion criteria : secondary ITP.

Blood samples (serum, plasma, DNA) will be collected in every patient at time of inclusion (pre-treatment) and then sequentially at 3, 6 and 12 months after inclusion in patients treated with rituximab or during the remission phase for other treatments for immunological studies. When a marrow analysis is indicated, some marrow specimens will also be collected and studied and if a patient will have to undergo a splenectomy as a standard of care, some spleen specimens will also be collected. Fc gamma RIIIA V/F158 polymorphism will be assessed by means of an allele-specific PCR. The sequential analysis of anti-platelets (anti-GpIIbIIIa) antibodies producing B cells will be performed by means of flow cytometry and ELISPOT analysis. T cells subsets will be harvested in presence of GpIIbIIIa immunodominant peptides and and cytokines expression will be measured on supernatants on days 2 and 11 in vitro by using Luminex technology in order to characterize and distinguish TH1, TH2, TH17, TFH and Tregs subsets.

The primary outcome will be the overall response rate 1 year after inclusion defined by a platelet count > 30 x 109/L with at least a two-fold increase of the initial (pre-treatment) count. For the patients treated with rituximab as a standard of care, based on the overall expected response-rate (40-50%) and based on preliminary data on FcgammaRIIIA V/F158 distribution, the inclusion of 85 patients should be sufficient to show an association of the V158 allele and the response (b risk 20% and a 5%). Responders and non responders will be compared by non parametrical tests, a multivariate analysis will be than performed using a logistic regression model. The immunological data B and T cells subsets) obtained in both the responders and the non responders will be compared over time (To, M3, M6 and M12) by non parametrical matched tests.

What is being measured

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

  1. The overall response rate to rituximab defined by a platelet count > 30 x 109/L with at least a two-fold increase of the initial (pre-treatment) count

    Measured: 1 year after inclusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Rate of complete response (platelet count > 100 x 109/L)

    Measured: at 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing blood sample in people with Immune Thrombocytopenia, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

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 overall response rate to rituximab defined by a platelet count > 30 x 109/L with at least a two-fold increase of the initial (pre-treatment) count (time frame: 1 year after inclusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Oct 2017.
