A Study of TAK-755 in Participants With Congenital Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura

ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new medication called TAK-755 for people with a rare blood condition known as congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). TTP causes the body to form small blood clots that can block blood flow to vital organs, leading to serious health issues. TAK-755 aims to replace a missing protein in the blood that helps control clotting, potentially preventing or managing flare-ups of TTP. The study will evaluate the long-term safety of TAK-755 in two groups: one group will receive the treatment regularly to prevent TTP events, while the other will take it only when a flare-up occurs.

To participate in this trial, individuals must be between 0 and 70 years old and have been diagnosed with severe congenital ADAMTS-13 deficiency, meaning their bodies struggle to break down blood clots properly. Participants will receive treatment for up to three years, with regular clinic visits for those in the preventive group and daily treatment for those in the on-demand group. It's important for potential participants to discuss their eligibility with their healthcare provider and understand that they will need to follow specific guidelines during the study to ensure their safety and the success of the trial.
