Trial summary

Glanzmann thrombasthenia is a rare genetic disorder caused by the absence or the dysfunction of the main receptor present on the surface of platelets, integrin αIIbβ3 or GPIIb-IIIa. The lack of this protein on the surface of platelets no longer allows these blood cells to bind to each other. Read more about this study

About this study

Glanzmann thrombasthenia is a rare genetic disorder caused by the absence or the dysfunction of the main receptor present on the surface of platelets, integrin αIIbβ3 or GPIIb-IIIa.

The lack of this protein on the surface of platelets no longer allows these blood cells to bind to each other. This binding corresponds to the process of platelet aggregation.

Read more

Generally, local measures will control nasal and superficial bleeding whereas platelet transfusions are used to control or prevent life-threatening.

The main complication of this treatment is the risk of developing anti-αIIbβ3 antibodies directed against the absent protein and platelet transfusion therapy can become ineffective.

Activated recombinant factor VII (rFVIIa) provides an alternative treatment for GT patients who develop such antibodies. However, this therapy has a short duration of efficacy, requiring repeated intravenous administrations every 2 to 3 hours.

There is a new treatment, Concizumab, which has not yet been marketed. This treatment acts on TFPI (tissue factor pathway inhibitor). TFPI is a protein that occurs naturally in the body and prevents blood cells from binding to each other.

Concizumab works by blocking TFPI, which may allow sufficient clotting to prevent bleeding.

This treatment could replace recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) because it has the advantage of a much longer duration of efficacy (about 3 days) and is administered subcutaneously.

Read the detailed description

This is in vitro research. The treatment will be tested on blood samples. This will allow us to evaluate in vitro the ability of Concizumab to restore coagulation compared to the usual treatments of platelet transfusions and recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa).

This is a single-center study conducted at the Bordeaux University Hospital, which included 10 with Glanzmann thrombasthenia patients and 10 healthy donors over a period of 12 months.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 6 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 26 May 2026. 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?

Effects of mixing concizumab compared with the main bleed treatment options for persons with GT (time frame: One point at the inclusion). 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 NCT06234813, 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 26 May 2026.
