This is a retrospective chart review of people with congenital TTP who received recombinant ADAMTS13 (rADAMTS13) through an early access program. The study collects existing medical-record data to describe health outcomes, treatment use, laboratory measures, pregnancies, and hospitalizations before and during rADAMTS13 treatment. No new treatments or procedures are given for the study.
What it is studying. The study is trying to describe the clinical picture and care of people with cTTP before and after they received rADAMTS13. It will look at counts of acute and subacute TTP episodes, blood and biochemical measures (for example platelet count, hemolysis markers, LDH, creatinine, proteinuria), ADAMTS13 activity and antibodies, treatment patterns (why and how rADAMTS13 was given, dose and frequency), pregnancies and outcomes, and hospital stays as recorded in medical charts.
What the researchers hope to learn. To describe how cTTP affects people treated with rADAMTS13 and to document treatment patterns, laboratory and biomarker measures, pregnancy outcomes, reasons for starting or stopping treatment, and hospital days. Results aim to improve understanding of real-world use and outcomes after rADAMTS13 in this patient group.
What this study is about
The study's own summary, as published on ClinicalTrials.gov. Underlined terms have a short explanation.
Congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (cTTP) is a rare blood disorder that some people are born with. It is caused by inherited changes in the ADAMTS13 gene that reduce the body's ability to produce the ADAMTS13 enzyme. ADAMTS13 normally cleaves ultra-large multimers of a protein called von Willebrand factor (VWF). In cTTP, low ADAMTS13 activity allows these ultra-large VWF multimers to build up and promote blood clot formation in small blood vessels. These clots can restrict blood flow to vital organs and lead to serious complications. Recombinant ADAMTS13 (rADAMTS13) is a manufactured form of human ADAMTS13 designed to replace the missing enzyme and restore ADAMTS13 activity. This study aims to describe the impact of cTTP on participants before and after treatment with rADAMTS13. It will also evaluate participants' health outcomes after treatment and describe treatment patterns before and after rADAMTS13, including whether treatment was used to prevent or treat TTP episodes, how often it was given, the amount received, and others. In addition, the study will describe pregnancies and outcomes for the mother and baby before and during treatment with rADAMTS13. Only data already available in the medical records of the people who received rADAMTS13 through Takeda's early access program (EAP) for cTTP will be collected and reviewed in this study.

Eligibility
The criteria exactly as listed on ClinicalTrials.gov. Only the study team can say whether they apply to you.
Inclusion criteria
- for the rADAMTS13 EAP are:
- Participants of any age can participate who have a confirmed diagnosis of severe congenital ADAMTS13 deficiency or cTTP.
- Participants must be on preventative or prophylactic treatment for cTTP or must have had at least one TTP event in the past.
- Participants must have no other treatment options available (this includes other clinical studies for cTTP).
- The inclusion criteria for this retrospective chart review are:
- Pediatric and adult participants (no age restrictions) with cTTP, treated with rADAMTS13 via the EAP, who received at least two administrations of rADAMTS13 and who have provided consent (or the legal guardians) to participate in this retrospective chart review.
- As per local regulations, evidence of a personally signed (or signed by a legally acceptable representative) and dated informed consent form/informed assent form (ICF/IAF) indicating that the participant (or their legal guardian) has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the retrospective chart review or an approval to process data without informed consent granted by an institutional review board/independent ethics committee (IRB/IEC)) Participants included in the EAP who were/are transitioned to the commercially available product will have their data abstracted for the duration of their participation in the EAP as well as when they received the commercially available product until the end of chart abstraction.
- There are no additional
Exclusion criteria

This is a retrospective chart review using existing medical records only. Study staff will collect information already in the record — for example treatment dates and doses of rADAMTS13, lab results (platelets, ADAMTS13 activity, LDH, kidney measures), symptoms, hospital days, and pregnancy outcomes before (up to 6 months) and during rADAMTS13 treatment. No new treatments, study procedures, or invasive tests are required by the study. Participation requires prior consent for chart review or an IRB/IEC approval to use records without consent.
How the study is structured. A retrospective observational cohort chart review: researchers will collect and analyze existing medical-record data from participants treated with rADAMTS13 in the Early Access Program. Data cover the period before rADAMTS13 started (up to 6 months per the protocol) and during treatment, with some outcomes followed until the end of chart abstraction; no study-assigned treatments or interventions are given.
Questions you could ask
These questions are suggestions for a conversation with the study team or your own clinician, not advice.
- This is an observational study, so the study itself gives no treatment. What would taking part involve for me, and would it change my usual care?
- The registry says recruitment has not started. When is it expected to open, and can I register interest now?
- No sites are listed on the registry yet. Where will the study take place?
- Which of the eligibility criteria would need to be checked with tests before I could join?
