About this study

Official title: Prevention of Rituximab Related Flare by Plasmapheresis in Cryoglobulinemic Vascularitis

Initial worsening following initiation of rituximab therapy in patients with cryoglobulinemic vasculitis was described in 3.6% of cases. This worsening is often a serious condition, with high levels of mortality.

The objective of our study is to evaluate the efficacy of preventive plasmapheresis prior to the introduction of rituximab performed in Montpellier France since 2013 by assessing the frequency and severity of this flare effect in these patients compared to those reported in the literature.

What is being measured

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

  1. comparison of frequency of occurrence of flare effects

    comparison of frequency of occurrence of flare effects between patients who received plasmapheresis prior to rituximab compared to patients who did not.

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. evaluation of the severity of the flare effect

    evaluation of the severity of the flare effect

    Measured: 1 day

  2. impact of known risk factors

    investigation of the impact of known risk factors for this effect

    Measured: 1 day

  3. evaluation of the safety of plasmapheresis in this indication

    evaluation of the safety of plasmapheresis in this indication

    Measured: 1 day

  4. evaluation of the efficacy of plasmapheresis on biological parameters

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cryoglobulinemic Vasculitis, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 2 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2020. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Charles HERBAUX, assistant Professor (4 67 33 83 64 ext. 33, c-herbaux@chu-montpellier.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

comparison of frequency of occurrence of flare effects (time frame: 1 day). 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 31 Dec 2020.
