Efficacy of Rituximab in the Treatment of Plasma Exchange Refractory Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura

Background: Rituximab can induce a durable remission in plasma exchange refractory thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Timing of Rituximab infusion in combination with plasma exchange (PE) and long term follow-up for probable side effects of such treatment is still lacking. Methods: This study was conducted among 10 patients with plasma exchange refractory TTP. According to the study de...

Successful Treatment of Refractory Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura with Rituximab, a Monoclonal Antibody: a Case Report

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is mostly attributed to the presence of an autoantibody against ADAMTS-13, a metalloprotease that degrades ultralarge von Willebrand protein multimers. Accumulation of vWF multimers and systemic platelet aggregation lead to microangiopathic thrombosis, hemolytic anemia, and end-organ ischemia. Most patients respond to therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE), ...

Complications of plasma exchange in 71 consecutive patients treated for clinically suspected thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura-hemolytic-uremic syndrome.

BACKGROUND With the increased frequency of diagnosis and improved survival of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura-hemolytic-uremic syndrome (TTP-HUS), the morbidity of plasma exchange (PE) treatment has become more important. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Data were prospectively collected on 71 consecutive patients referred to the Oklahoma Blood Institute (OBI) for PE treatment for clinically susp...

Frequently relapsing thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura treated with cytotoxic immunosuppressive therapy.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Treatment of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) with plasma exchange has reduced mortality rates from 90% in untreated cases to less than 20%. Despite plasma exchange, relapses may occur in as many as 40% of cases. Multiple relapses occur in a minority but pose a significant therapeutic challenge. Recent evidence supports the presence of an autoantibody which in...

A Case Report of Successful Management of Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura Syndrome (TTP) in a Pregnant Woman with Plasmapheresis

Background and Aim: Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is a rare and life-threatening disease with a relatively high prevalence of 5% in pregnancy that causes thrombocytopenia. Due to the high prevalence and mortality of fetal and maternal mortality, which resolves rapidly with the onset of plasmapheresis, the diagnosis of this disease is clinically important. The aim of this study was to succ...
