Registered outcomes21
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Time-to-response of Treatment Defined by a Confirmed Recovery of Platelets ≥ 150,000/µL | From the day of first study drug administration up to 30 days after first study drug administration | Time-to-response, defined by the achievement of platelet count response, confirmed at 48 hours after the initial reporting of this response. Platelet response was defined as recovery of platelets ≥ 150,000/µL. This response had to be confirmed at 48 hours after the initial reporting of platelet recovery ≥ 150,000/µL by a de novo measure of platelets ≥ 150,000/µL and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) ≤ 2x upper limit of normal (ULN) (i.e., 'confirmed platelet response'). |
| Secondary | Number and Percentage of Subjects With Complete Remission Following Initial Daily Plasma Exchange (PE) | From the day of first study drug administration up to 30 days after first study drug administration | Number and percentage of subjects with complete remission (defined as confirmed platelet count response and absence of exacerbation) following initial daily PE. |
| Secondary | Number and Percentage of Subjects With Exacerbations of TTP | Within 30 days of last day of initial daily PE | Number and percentage of subjects with exacerbations of TTP (defined as recurrent thrombocytopenia following a confirmed platelet count response and requiring a re-initiation of daily PE treatment after ≥ 1 day but ≤ 30 days of end of daily PE treatment. Time to first exacerbation of TTP was also examined as part of this end point analysis; the median time to first exacerbation could not be determined because of the small number of events. |
| Secondary | Number and Percentage of Subjects With Relapse of TTP | Later than 30 days after the last daily PE | Number and percentage of subjects with relapse of TTP (defined as de novo TTP event that occurred later than 30 days after the last daily PE) was evaluated. |
| Secondary | Number of Daily PE Sessions During the Initial Daily PE Period | During the initial daily PE period, with a median (min, max) duration of exposure to study drug of 6 (2, 36) days | Number of daily PE sessions during the initial daily PE period which could include more than 1 PE per day was evaluated. |
| Secondary | Total Volume of Plasma Administered During the Initial Daily PE Period | During the initial daily PE period, with a median (min, max) duration of exposure to study drug of 6 (2, 36) days | The total volume of plasma administered during the initial daily PE period was measured. |
| Secondary | Number of Days With at Least One PE Administration During the Total Course of the Study | During the total course of the study (from Screening till the 12-month follow-up [FU] visit) | Number of days for PE was evaluated. This implies the number of days with at least one PE administration during the total course of the study. |
| Secondary | The Maximum Number of Consecutive Days Per Subject Where There Was no Interruption of PE During the Initial Daily PE Period | During the initial daily PE period, with a median (min, max) duration of exposure to study drug of 6 (2, 36) days | The maximum number of consecutive days per subject where there was no interruption of PE during the initial daily PE period. |
| Secondary | Resolution of Non-focal Neurological Symptoms | From Baseline till the 12-month FU visit | Resolution of non-focal neurological symptoms as defined by neurocognitive function at complete remission, measured by a Computerised Neuropsychological Test Battery(CNTB) (adults only). The CNTB included 6 modules: word list learning and selective reminding (WLL/SR), choice reaction time (CRT), visual memory (VMEM), simple reaction time (SRT), working memory (WMEM), and word list learning and delayed recall (WLL/DR). The 6 tasks are rated as a percentage correct (for CRT and SRT, the percentage correct corresponds to the percentage hits) and the mean score from these provides the CNTB summary score (range: 0-100). A higher CNTB summary score indicates better neuropsychological functioning. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Resolution of TTP-related Signs or Symptoms | End of daily PE treatment period (median [min, max] duration of exposure to study drug of 6 [2, 36] days), end of study treatment period (median [min, max] duration of exposure to study drug of 36.5 [2, 90] days) and at 1 month follow-up | Resolution or improvement (improvement of ≥ 1 grade in the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events \[CTCAE\] v4.0 scale) of TTP-related signs and symptoms as captured on physical examination and as adverse events. This endpoint was only evaluated for "resolution". |
