This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $438,682 to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct a multi-center observational study on silent cerebral infarction (SCI) in patients with immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP). The study aims to elucidate the natural history of SCI, establish the incidence and risk factors for new SCI and stroke during iTTP remission, and evaluate the impact of the novel anti-VWF therapy caplacizumab on the prevalence of SCI and cognitive impairment. This research project, which runs from August 2024 to July 2027, will provide critical data to inform clinical care and treatment approaches for this rare, life-threatening disorder.
