Abstract
A prospective, single-arm, open-label Phase III clinical trial was conducted across multiple centers in China from April 27, 2020, to June 15, 2021, to assess the efficacy and safety of 10% intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) in treating adult immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Within 7 days of treatment initiation, the 10% IVIg group exhibited an overall response rate of 87.0%, with 32 patients (46.4%) achieving complete response and 28 patients (40.6%) demonstrating partial response, comparable to the 5% IVIg group. Notably, the median time to achieve a platelet count (PLT) of 50 × 10(9)/L was significantly shorter for the 10% IVIg group at 2 days (IQR: 2-3) versus 3 days (IQR: 3-5) for the 5% IVIg group. Additionally, the 10% IVIg group reached a PLT of 100 × 10(9)/L in 3 days (IQR: 3-4), compared to 5 days (IQR: 4-6) for the 5% IVIg group. Post-treatment bleeding scores significantly decreased, and no significant adverse reactions were reported. This inaugural study highlights the efficacy and safety of 10% IVIg in the urgent management of adult ITP, positioning it as a rapid therapeutic option.
