Study Description

Brief Summary:

The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a personalized caplacizumab regimen based on ADAMTS13 activity monitoring in adult acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP): This study is a phase II, prospective, multicenter non-inferiority single-arm study.

Condition or disease	Intervention/treatment	Phase
Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura, Acquired	Drug: Caplacizumab	Phase 2

Detailed Description:

ADAMTS13 activity will be evaluated on day 7 after the end of daily PE and every 7 days until ADAMTS13 activity ≥ 20% is reached. In case of persistent severe ADAMTS13 deficiency (≤ 20%), caplacizumab administration could be extended for a maximum of 58 days after the end of the daily PE period and should be accompanied by an adjusted immunosuppressive therapy as needed. This duration is in accordance with the HERCULES study protocol and its SmPC.

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/treatment
Caplacizumab; All patients in the study are aTTP and needs to be treated by caplacizumab. The duration of this treatment will be evaluated through the ADAMTS 13 activity.	Drug: Caplacizumab; Analyse of ADAMTS13 activity in patients with aTTP treated with Caplacizumab in order to help adapting the treatment with caplacizumab in TTP patients

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

1. To evaluate the feasibility of a personalized caplacizumab regimen in aTTP based on ADAMTS13 activity monitoring assessed by a composite criteria including mortality, refractoriness and/or exacerbation at 30 days post-PE treatment [ Time Frame: 30 days post-PE treatment ]
   composite endpoint defined by the occurrence of at least one the following events during the 30 days post-PE treatment: death, refractoriness or exacerbation.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

1. Response to treatment (platelet count recovery) [ Time Frame: 30 days post-PE treatment ]
   to platelet count recovery (as defined by a platelet count ≥ 150 G/L with a subsequent interruption of daily PE within 5 days)
2. Durable remission achievement [ Time Frame: 90 days post-PE treatment ]
   Occurrence of durable remission achievement (platelet count ≥ 150 G/L for ≥ 30 consecutive days following PE interruption);
3. Mortality at D90 post-PE treatment [ Time Frame: 90 days post-PE treatment ]
   Occurrence of death within 90 days post-PE treatment
4. Refractoriness at D30 post-PE treatment [ Time Frame: Day 30 post-PE treatment ]
   Occurrence of refractoriness at D30 post-PE treatment;
5. Exacerbation at D30 post-PE treatment [ Time Frame: Day 30 post-PE treatment ]
   Occurrence of exacerbations at D30 post-PE treatment
6. Duration of plasma exchange (PE) treatment and the associated plasma volumes [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
   Duration of daily PE with the corresponding plasma volume
7. Duration of plasma exchange (PE) treatment and the associated plasma [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
   Total number of PE and the corresponding plasma volume during the full study drug treatment period
8. Occurrence of neurological sequelae treatment [ Time Frame: Day 90 post-PE treatment ]
   Neurological assessment based on Rankin score
9. Evaluate the Quality of life [ Time Frame: Day 90 post-PE treatment ]
   Quality of life based on global post-traumatic score (PCL-S SCALE) at baseline, D90 post-PE treatment
10. Evaluate the cost of the strategy [ Time Frame: Day 90 post-PE treatment ]
    Costs of the patients' management (Direct hospital medical expenses, Suppléments, direct costs of home care, caplacizumab injections, rehospitalizations) of patients treated with the regimen according to the study
11. To perform a safety analysis [ Time Frame: 90 days post-PE treatment ]
    Occurrence of AE and SAE during the study
12. Occurrence of cognitive sequelae treatment [ Time Frame: Day 90 post-PE treatment ]
    Cognitive assessment based on MMS score

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Adult patients ≥ 18 years;
• Clinical diagnosis of aTTP based on standard clinical and laboratory criteria (French Score ≥ 2): i.e., thrombotic microangiopathy syndrome with platelet count ≤ 30 G/L and serum creatinine ≤ 200 μmol/L; severe ADAMTS13 deficiency is not a requirement for inclusion of patients with a French score of 2 [31];
• Patient having read and understood the information letter and signed the Informed Consent Form. If the patient is unable to express his consent, the consent will be signed by his representative ((1) the trusted person, or failing that, (2) a family member, or (3) a close relative of the person concerned). In this case, consent to continue the study will subsequently be requested from the patient (article L1122-1-1 of the CSP);
• Patient affiliated with, or beneficiary of a social security (national health insurance) plan;
