Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Octagam 10% 1 g/kg/day

Arm Description

Participants received Octagam 10% (human normal immunoglobulin) 1 g/kg intravenously once a day for 2 days.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With a Clinical Response
A clinical response is defined as an increase in platelet count to ≥ 50*10^9/L on any day from Day 2 to Day 7.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time to Achieve a Clinical Response
A clinical response is defined as an increase in platelet count to ≥ 50*10^9/L on any day from Day 2 to Day 7.
Maximum Platelet Count
Platelet count was assessed on Days 2 through 7 and on Days 14, 21, and 63. The maximum measured platelet count is reported.
Duration of the Clinical Response
The duration of the clinical response was the number of days that the platelet count remained ≥ 50*10^9/L. Platelet count was assessed on Days 2 through 7 and on Days 14, 21, and 63. A conservative method was used to calculate the duration of the clinical response. For example, if the platelet count was ≥ 50*10^9/L on Day 7 and dropped below 50*10^9/L at Day 14, Day 7 was used as the last day to calculate the duration of the clinical response. The same procedure was used if the platelet count dropped below 50*10^9/L at Day 21 from Day 14 or Day 63 from Day 21.
Percentage of Participants With None, Minor, Mild, or Moderate Bleeding at Day 7
The investigator evaluated the severity of bleeding using the following rating scale: None (definitely no haemorrhage of any kind), Minor (few petechiae [≤ 100 total] and/or ≤ 5 small bruises [≤ 3 cm diameter], no mucosal bleeding), Mild (many petechiae [> 100 total] and/or > 5 large bruises [> 3 cm diameter], no mucosal bleeding), Moderate (overt mucosal bleeding [epistaxis, gum bleeding, oropharyngeal blood blisters, menorrhagia, gastrointestinal bleeding, etc] that does not require immediate medical attention or intervention).

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Octagam is a solvent/detergent-treated human normal immunoglobulin (IGIV) solution for intravenous administration. Octagam 5% is currently registered in about 80 countries. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of Octagam 10% in Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) in adults. As Octagam 10% is essentially similar to Octagam 5%, it is expected that Octagam 10% is as efficacious and safe (in respect to viral safety) as Octagam 5%.
Detailed Description
The primary objective of the study was to investigate the efficacy of Octagam® 10% in correcting platelet count. The blood count as well as laboratory chemistry were checked repeatedly up to day 21. The secondary objective of the study was to investigate the safety of Octagam® 10%. Safety was assessed by monitoring vital signs, evaluating adverse events, assessing laboratory parameters, and by viral safety testing.
