Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this large French multicentric retrospective study was to compare the efficacy and safety of two (the standard and the Rheumatoid arthritis) rituximab regimens in adult's immune thrombocytopenia .

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    Every adult (age ≥ 18 years) seen in one of the 3 participating centre (dijon, Marseille, Mondor) over a 7-year period (2005-2012) with a definite diagnosis of primary ITP according to the American Society Hematology guidelines who received RTX regardless the regimen could be included.

    Arms and Interventions

    Arm Intervention/Treatment
    Standard regimen

    Patients received the standard regimen (i.e 4 weekly infusions of 375 mg/m2)of rituximab

    Rheumatoid arthritis regimen

    Patients received the RA regimen (i.e two infusions of 1000 mg, 2 weeks apart) of rituximab

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. The primary end point of the study was to assess the response rate to treatment 1 year after the first rituximab infusion. [one year]

      A complete response (CR) was defined as a platelet count >100 x 109/l and a response (R): by a platelet count >30 x 109/l with a least a doubling of the baseline value without any rescue intervention within 8 weeks before assessment, and no response (NR) was defined as a platelet count lower than 30 x 109/

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. The response rate 3months, and at the last follow-up after the first rituximab infusion. Variable associated with RTX response. [3 months, one year, last follow-up]
