Safety and efficacy of classical complement pathway inhibition with sutimlimab in chronic immune thrombocytopenia.

ABSTRACT: Chronic/refractory immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare and pathophysiologically heterogeneous disorder with variable responsiveness to available treatments. Sutimlimab, a first-in-class humanized monoclonal anti-C1s IgG4 antibody, selectively inhibits the classical pathway. This phase 1 study (NCT03275454) assessed the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of biweekly sutimlimab in patients with chronic/refractory ITP with an inadequate response to ≥2 therapies (platelet count ≤ 30 × 109/L). Twelve patients (median age 42 years) received sutimlimab for a median of 20.5 weeks followed by a median 2-week washout period (part A). In part B, 7 of the 12 eligible patients received sutimlimab retreatment for a median of 113 weeks. In part A, the mean (standard deviation) p
