Caplacizumab reduces the frequency of major thromboembolic events, exacerbations, and death in patients with acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
ConclusionIn total, 11.4% of caplacizumab‐treated patients versus 43.2% of placebo‐treated patients experienced one or more major thromboembolic event, an exacerbation or died. This analysis shows the potential for caplacizumab to reduce the risk of major thromboembolic morbidities and mortality associated with aTTP.This article is protected by copyright.
