Active clinical trials for "Red-Cell Aplasia, Pure"

The purpose of this study is to collect historical occurrences of risk factors that are potentially associated with the development of anti-erythropoietin (EPO) antibody positive pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) in participants with chronic kidney disease who have been recently treated with epoetin alfa (EPREX).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship of anti-erythropoietin antibodies to the clinical course and outcome of pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) in participants currently or previously treated with recombinant human erythropoietin.

The purpose of this study is to determine occurrence of pure red cell aplasia in a group of participants with chronic renal insufficiency and with resistance criteria to epoetin alfa treatment.The investigational product is producted by Bio-Manguinhos / Fiocruz (BIO-EPO) and it is provided by the Unified Health System.

The purpose of this study is to assess the incidence of pure red cell aplasia (PRCA [suppression of erythropoiesis with little or no abnormality of leukocyte or platelet production]) among participants with chronic renal failure (CRF), who were receiving treatment with epoetin alfa or other exogenous recombinant erythropoietin therapies.

The purpose of this study is to record the number of participants with chronic renal disease who are receiving treatment with epoetin alfa or other recombinant erythropoietins who develop pure red cell aplasia (PRCA, a rare form of anemia) during the study period.

Bone marrow failure syndromes (BMFS) are rare disorders characterized by dysfunctional hematopoietic stem cells, which give rise to all red and white blood cells. The deficiency of blood cells, or cytopenia, caused by this malfunction leads to an assortment of diseases and disorders, all of which are characterized as BMFS. Because these diseases are rare, conducting research on them is difficult, and standards of treatment for most BMFS have yet to be developed. This study will collect clinical and laboratory data from people with BMFS to identify the characteristics and biological markers associated with these diseases over time. This information will assist doctors and researchers to develop better therapies and diagnostic tests that will help improve the management of BMFS and cytopenias.
