Trial summary

The aim of this study is to determine histological immunological parameters, sought on splenectomy pieces that may explain the failure or success of splenectomy in patients with ITP who had a splenectomy to treat their ITP(Immune thrombocytopenic purpura). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Retrospective Study of Splenic Immunological Markers as Predictive Factors for Response to Splenectomy in Adult Patients Affected by a Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura

The aim of this study is to determine histological immunological parameters, sought on splenectomy pieces that may explain the failure or success of splenectomy in patients with ITP who had a splenectomy to treat their ITP(Immune thrombocytopenic purpura).

Read the detailed description

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a rare autoimmune thrombocytopenia whose incidence is 2 to 5 cases / 100,000 inhabitants / year. The potentially serious haemorrhagic risk is the major issue of management. A recent international consensus conference classifies PTI according to the duration of thrombocytopenia: acute ITP (<3 months), persistent ITP (3-12 months) and chronic ITP (> 12 months) (Rodeghiero 2009). In the acute or persistent phase, polyvalent immunoglobulins (IVIG) and / or corticosteroids are proposed. In the chronic phase, splenectomy is a possible cure for 70% of patients. No predictor of treatment response is known.

The pathophysiology of ITP is multifactorial: platelet phagocytosis, mediated by autoantibody, macrophages of the reticuloendothelial system, and destruction in the spleen, genetic background and / or environmental factor favoring the role of certain lymphocyte subpopulations, cytotoxic or regulatory T, via their cytokine environment, abnormalities of thrombopoiesis.

At present, no predictive factor of splenectomy success has been identified. The aim of this study is to determine histological immunological parameters, sought on splenectomy pieces that may explain the failure or success of splenectomy in patients with ITP who had a splenectomy to treat their ITP.

What participants receive

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

  • ImmunolabelingProcedure or surgery

    Immunolabeling of abnormalities observed by the cell study in flow cytometry.

Study groups in NCT04056507
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ITP groupOn frozen spleens of already splenectomized adult ITP patients.
Receives: Procedure: Immunolabeling
Control groupOn frozen control spleens from patients who had a splenectomy at the Bordeaux University Hospital following a road accident.
Receives: Procedure: Immunolabeling

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete remission (CR) after splenectomy.

    Determination of ITP status following Rodeghiero criteria : complete remission if platelet count > 100 G/L. patient who is not on complete remission after splenectomy will be considered to be failing.

    Measured: At the inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura and Splenectomy; Status, run by University Hospital, Bordeaux.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 14 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Complete remission (CR) after splenectomy. (time frame: At the inclusion). 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 14 Aug 2019.
