An evaluation of cyclosporin and corticosteroids individually as adjuncts to plasma exchange in the treatment of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.
British Journal of Haematology 2007 January
We present the results of two consecutively performed cohort studies that evaluated the clinical effects of corticosteroids or cyclosporin as an adjunct to plasma exchange (PE) for the treatment of an acute episode of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). In comparing 12 corticosteroid-treated patients with eight cyclosporin-treated patients, none of the cyclosporin-treated patients suffered an exacerbation or recurrence of TTP in the first 30 d after discontinuing PE compared with 6/10 (60%) of the corticosteroid-treated patients (P = 0.042). These data suggest that cyclosporin may have advantages over corticosteroids as an adjunct to PE therapy in the initial treatment of idiopathic TTP.
