About this study

Official title: Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and the Safety of IGIV3I Grifols 10% (Human Intravenous Immunoglobulin) in Patients Diagnosed With Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura

The purpose of this study is to determine whether IGIV3I Grifols 10% is effective in the treatment of immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

Read the detailed description

To determine if IGIV3I Grifols 10% is a consistently effective treatment in patients diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenic purpura with respect to:

  1. Increase of platelet count ≥ 50x10^9/L (primary objective).
  2. Time taken for the platelet count to reach ≥ 50x10^9/L.
  3. The length of time the platelet count remains ≥ 50x10^9/L.
  4. The maximum platelet level.
  5. Regression of bleeding episodes during the first 10 or 14 days.

To determine if IGIV3I Grifols 10% is safe with respect to:

Nature, severity and frequency of adverse reactions during and after infusions by percentage of subjects and percentage of infusions.

Receives: Biological: IGIV3I Grifols

What is being measured

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

  1. Responder Patients

    The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients who reached a platelet count ≥ 50x10^9/L.

    Measured: At any time during the study period (The platelet count was measured at Days 1-6, 10, 14. 21, 30, 60, 90).

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Maximum Platelet Level Reached During the Follow-up Period

    Platelet count was measured at various time points in the follow-up period after infusion.

    Measured: During the follow-up period (time points: Days 6, 10, 14, 21, 30, 60, 90 post-first infusion day [Day 1])

  2. Time to Reach Platelet Count ≥ 50x10^9/L (≤ Days)

    The time taken for the platelet count to reach ≥ 50x10^9/L from first dose

    Measured: At any time during the study period (time points: Days 1-6, 10, 14, 21, 30, 60, 90 post-first infusion day [Day 1])

  3. Length of Time Platelet Count Remains ≥ 50x10^9/L (≥ Days)

    Length of time platelet count remained ≥ 50x10^9/L from first dose (Day 1)

    Measured: At any time during the study period (up to 3 months [90 days])

  4. Regression of Hemorrhages.

    Percentage of subjects with regression of hemorrhages of Types 1 to 3:

    • Type 0: Patients without symptoms of bleeding at the first infusion continue without presenting spontaneous bleeding
    • Type 1: Patients with bleeding symptoms at the first infusion had a reduction of the size of large ecchymoses, and no spontaneous appearance of new ecchymoses
    • Type 2: Patients with bleeding symptoms at the first infusion had a decrease in the number of cutaneous petechiae, or the extent of the affected area of the body decreased
    • Type 3: Patients had active mucosal bleedings at the first infusion, these episodes stopped without re-bleeding, and there was no occurrence of new spontaneous mucosal hemorrhages (e.g., gingival bleeding, epistaxis)

    Measured: First 10 to14 days since the first infusion day (Day 1)

  5. Frequency of Adverse Reactions During and After Infusions by Percentage of Patients

    All adverse events (AEs) are tabulated and summarized. The incidence, severity, and causal relationship of the AEs to IGIV3I Grifols are presented by system organ class after medical coding according to the version 15.0 of Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). The frequency of patients with at least one AE and adverse drug reactions are estimated.

    Measured: At any time during the study period (from patient's signature of the informed consent form until 3 months of follow-up)

  6. Frequency of Adverse Reactions During and After Infusions by Percentage of Infusions

    All adverse events (AEs) are tabulated and summarized. The incidence, severity, and causal relationship of the AEs to IGIV3I Grifols are presented by system organ class after medical coding according to the version 15.0 of Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). The frequency of infusions associated with at least one AE and adverse drug reactions are estimated.

    Measured: At any time during the study period (from patient's signature of the informed consent form until 3 months of follow-up)

  7. Changes in Vital Signs and Clinically Relevant Changes in Laboratory Parameters After the Infusions, Including Renal Function (Creatinine Levels)

    Laboratory parameters at each treatment day and visit are summarized by patient. Results were marked as normal/abnormal (whether the result is below, within or above the respective reference range) and relevant/irrelevant (as determined by the investigator). The number of abnormal values considered clinically relevant changes (based on the investigator's judgment) was listed.

    Measured: At any time during the study period (from patient's signature of the informed consent form until 3 months of follow-up)

  8. Viral Safety Through the Investigation of Patients Virology Status (Hepatitis A Virus [HA

    The results of HIV-1 and -2 antibodies, HCV antibody, HBsAg, HBV antibodies, HAV antibodies, HIV nucleic acid amplification test [NAT], and HCV NAT on Day 1, Day 14, and at Month 1, Month 2 and Month 3 were recorded for several of these markers (as appropriate). A comparison of negative viral markers on Day 1 and Month 3 was performed

    Measured: At any time during the study period (from patient's signature of the informed consent form until 3 months of follow-up)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing IGIV3I Grifols in people with Immune (Idiopathic) Thrombocytopenic Purpura, run by Instituto Grifols, S.A. at 7 sites in 3 countries.

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 13 inclusion and 17 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 8 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Spain, Russia, United Kingdom. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Feb 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Responder Patients (time frame: At any time during the study period (The platelet count was measured at Days 1-6, 10, 14. 21, 30, 60, 90).). 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 8 Feb 2016.
