Summary
This trial is testing if daratumumab, an IV medication, is safe for people with Anti-Phospholipid Syndrome (APS). APS patients are being studied because they may not respond well to usual treatments. Daratumumab works by helping the immune system target specific cells that might be causing issues.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-65 with Anti-Phospholipid Syndrome (APS), who meet specific criteria including a history of certain types of thrombosis or pregnancy complications related to APS. Participants must have completed recommended vaccinations, be willing to use warfarin or LMWH for anticoagulation, and not have other autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety of daratumumab at different doses (4 mg/kg, 8 mg/kg, and 16 mg/kg) in treating APS. Up to 22 participants will receive intravenous doses on a set schedule to identify any dose-limiting toxicities during this phase.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at the infusion site, changes in blood counts leading to increased risk of infections or bleeding, possible liver function alterations indicated by enzyme levels, and allergic responses due to sensitivity towards daratumumab's components.
