About this study

Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), one of the most common bleeding disorders, is characterized by reduced platelet count and an increased risk of bleeding ITP is an acquired autoimmune disease, in which platelets are opsonized by auto-antibodies and destroyed by phagocytic cells ITP pathogenesis involves a hyper-activated T cell response, which is important for cell-mediated cytotoxicity and IgG production Therefore, investigating T cell abnormalities in ITP patients may reveal the mechanism of pathogenesis and development of ITP.

The costimulatory molecules of T cells consist of CD28, inducible costimulatory (ICOS), TNF superfamily member 4 (TNFSF4), and DNAM1 (CD226), and the co-inhibitory molecules contain TIM3, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA4), programmed death-1 (PD1), and lymphocyte activating 3 (LAG3) Among these, CD28 and CTLA4 represent the best-studied costimulatory pathways. CD28 and CTLA4 interact with two ligands (CD80 and CD86) on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs), introducing a positive stimulatory and a negative inhibitory signal into T cells, respectively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Genotyping of rs1980422-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms by real time PCR in people with Immune Thrombocytopenia, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 21 Jul 2022. 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 Egypt. 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 Bedor E Hussien, assistant lecture (01066072377, bodor.badr@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

rs1980422-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05468866, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 21 Jul 2022.
