Trial summary

The chronic immune thrombopenia is an autoimmune disease caused by B cells. These cells produce anti platelets and megakaryocytes antibodies. Some B cells, named regulatory B cells, are known to control other cells. Their action in chronic immune thrombopenia is actually unknown. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Role of Regulatory B Cells in the Chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia

The chronic immune thrombopenia is an autoimmune disease caused by B cells. These cells produce anti platelets and megakaryocytes antibodies. Some B cells, named regulatory B cells, are known to control other cells. Their action in chronic immune thrombopenia is actually unknown.

Read the detailed description

The chronic immune thrombopenia is an autoimmune disease caused by B cells. These cells produce anti platelets and megakaryocytes antibodies. Some B cells, named regulatory B cells, are known to control other cells. Their action in chronic immune thrombopenia is actually unknown. In our cohort of chronic immune thrombopenia and controls, we realized a flow cytometry analyze of B and T cells and a co-culture to determine regulatory B cells functionality.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Purpura, Thrombocytopenic, Idiopathic and Regulatory B Cells, run by University Hospital, Brest 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2016. 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?

Regulatory B cells functionality (time frame: 1 week). 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 7 Sep 2016.
