What participants receive

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

  • DaratumumabDrug

    Daratumumab is a monoclonal globulin targeting the CD38 molecule of immune cells, which can eliminate antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells and macrophages, and indirectly reduce the production of autoantibodies. In addition, Daratumumab reduces autoantibody levels by targeting plasma cells, B lymphocytes and T lymphocytes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of patients with platelet transfusion responsiveness

    To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Daratumumab to increase the platelet increment, defined as Corrected Count Increment (CCI) ≥7500/μL at 60 min or CCI≥4500/μL at 24 hrs post transfusion, or platelet transfusion independence, i.e. PLT>10×10^9/L without any bleeding events.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Time to the platelet increment

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Daratumumab in people with Aplastic Anemia and Platelet Transfusion Refractoriness, run by Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 24 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 3 Jan 2025. 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 China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Percentage of patients with platelet transfusion responsiveness (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 NCT05832216, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Jan 2025.
