Efgartigimod for adults with chronic ITP
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests an investigational drug called efgartigimod, given through a vein, for adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who have not responded well to other treatments. The goal is to see if it safely raises platelet counts and reduces bleeding risk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older.
- Your platelet count must be below 30 (thousand per microliter) before starting the study.
- You have had ITP for more than 12 months.
- You have tried at least one prior ITP treatment (like steroids, IVIg, or others).
- You have had a platelet count of 50 or higher in the past 3 years after treatment with certain medications.
- You do not have other autoimmune diseases or conditions that could interfere with the study.

This trial tests an intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) treatment for chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where the immune system attacks platelets, causing low counts and bleeding risk. It aims to safely raise platelet levels using donated antibodies.
This trial compares two treatment approaches for adults with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where platelet counts are too low. It looks at whether adding rituximab to eltrombopag helps control ITP better and more safely.
This study tests a new combination of two medicines (ianalumab and eltrombopag) for children with a blood condition called ITP (low platelets causing bruising and bleeding) who haven't improved with steroids. The goal is to see if this combination can safely raise platelet counts and reduce bleeding risk.
This trial compares two ways to raise platelet counts in people with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who did not get enough benefit from a short course of a standard medicine. One option is a higher dose of a similar medicine, and the other is switching to a different pill. The goal is to find a treatment that works better with fewer side effects.
This study tests a sequence of two medicines that help raise platelet counts in people with severe ITP. The first is given as an injection, and the second is a pill, and they are given after standard steroid treatment. The goal is to see if this approach can improve platelet levels safely.
This trial tests an IV medicine called efgartigimod for teenagers (ages 12 to under 18) who have had chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) for more than a year. The goal is to see if it can safely help raise platelet counts.
