Efficacy and safety of the neonatal Fc receptor inhibitor efgartigimod in adults with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ADVANCE IV): a multicentre, randomised, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial
Efgartigimod significantly increased sustained platelet count responses compared with placebo in patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenia, including those who had received multiple previous immune thrombocytopenia therapies. Upon completion of the ADVANCE IV study, patients could enroll in the ongoing open-label extension. Subcutaneous efgartigimod is currently being evaluated in patients with immune thrombocytopenia in the ADVANCE SC+ trial.
