Bleeding Related Episodes, Thrombotic Events and Platelet Counts Among Immune Thrombocytopenia Patients Receiving Second Line Therapy
CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective real world evidence study compares mean platelet response and burden of both BREs and TEs in ITP patients treated with different second-line treatments. Although there were significant differences in mean platelet counts achieved with the second-line treatments, TEs were observed with similar incidence across all treatments. Patients who received splenectomy had the highest mean platelet counts and also the highest proportion of patients who experienced TEs, though differences in TEs did not reach statistical significance. Incidence proportion of patients with BREs was lower in patients trea...

Emicizumab for the Treatment of Acquired Hemophilia_A: Lessons Learned from 4 Very Different Cases
In conclusion, emiczumab seems to be an effective hemostatic therapy also for AHA, which offers several advantages: subcutaneous weekly therapy, good hemostatic efficacy, possible outpatient therapy, the option to reduce the intensity of immunosuppressive therapy to avoid side effects (as the patients are protected from bleeding), and seems even to be more cost effective than bypassing agents. However, special attention is necessary on the use of appropriate lab assays (chromogenic FVIII assays), the artificial effects on APTT and Bethesda assays, the recognition of the remission, and to avoid the concomitant use of APCC. ...

Recurrent ischemic strokes as the initial presentation of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura with normal platelets: a case report. (P1.296)
Conclusions:Recurrent strokes in multiple vascular territories should prompt suspicion of hypercoagulable, cardioembolic, or vasculitis/opathy. TTP can be a cause of hypercoagulability in patients with cryptogenic stroke even without major hematologic abnormalities. TTP is treatable with plasma exchange and immunosuppression. Thus, one must consider TTP even in the absence of hematologic abnormalities, especially in a young patient with no stroke risk factors and otherwise negative stroke work-up.Disclosure: Dr. Horton has nothing to disclose. Dr. Doyle has nothing to disclose. Dr. Powell has received research support from...

Antiphospholipid Syndrome-Associated Crescendo Stroke Events Treated with Rituximab (P4.351)
Discussion APS is an autoimmune condition associated with persistent antiphospholipid antibodies, characterised by thrombosis and pregnancy morbidity [1].Regarding APS and stroke the optimal antithrombotic agent, intensity of anticoagulation, and duration of treatment remains controversial[2]. Analysis of the APASS subgroup in the WARS study found aspirin and warfarin to be equally effective agents for secondary stroke prevention [2]. The majority of panel members at the International Congress on Antiphospholipid Antibodies recommended warfarin or combination aspirin and warfarin for patients with definite APS and arterial...
