Primary Objective:
- To evaluate the effect of BIVV020 on the durability of platelet response in participants with persistent/chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)
Secondary Objectives:
- To assess the safety and tolerability of BIVV020

Pharmaceutical form:solution for injection |
- Proportion of participants with a durable platelet response [ Time Frame: Week 3 to Week 24 ]
Durable platelet response is defined for naïve participants as the proportion of participants with a platelet count ≥50 × 109/L at ≥50% of scheduled visits, or for participants with baseline platelet count <15 × 109/L, a ≥20 × 109/L increase in platelet count from baseline at ≥50% of scheduled visits, without receiving rescue ITP therapy, as assessed from Week 3 to Week 24.
Durable platelet response is defined for participants who previously received sutimlimab as maintenance of platelet count ≥30 × 109/L at ≥50% of scheduled visits, without receiving rescue ITP therapy, as assessed from Week 3 to Week 24.
- Number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events [ Time Frame: Week 52 ]
- Plasma concentrations of BIVV020 [ Time Frame: Week 52 ]
- Response rate of treatment with BIVV020 [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 52 ]Response rate at Weeks 24 and 52, defined as a platelet count ≥50 × 109/L and a greater than 2-fold increase from baseline, measured on 2 occasions at least 7 days apart, with the absence of bleeding (bleeding is defined as bleeding with a score ≥2 on the WHO bleeding scale), and the lack of combination ITP therapy during this period.
- Time to first platelet response [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 52 ]Time from baseline to first platelet response, defined as greater than or equal to each of the following values: 50 × 109/L and 100 × 109/L (confirmed by 2 measurements at least 7 days apart)
- Proportion of patients who did not require rescue therapy for an acute episode of thrombocytopenia after Week 3 [ Time Frame: From Week 3 to Week 52 ]
- Number of participants with incidence and titer (if relevant) of anti-BIVV020 antibodies [ Time Frame: Week 24, Week 52 ]

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion criteria :
- Male and female participants ≥18 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent
- Confirmed diagnosis of primary ITP; for participants who previously received sutimlimab in study TDR16218 (NCT03275454), a response to sutimlimab must have been obtained, as defined by platelet count ≥30 × 10^9/L on 2 visits at least 7 days apart
-
For participants who have not previously received sutimlimab: persistent/chronic ITP (ITP lasting for ≥6 months) and all the following conditions:
- Platelet count ≤30 × 10^9/L on 2 occasions at least 5 days apart during the Screening Period;
- Lack of an adequate platelet count response (as defined by maintenance of sustained platelet count ≥30 × 109/L in the absence of bleeding) to at least 2 ITP treatments, 1 of which was a thrombopoietin receptor agonist. Other ITP treatments include: IVIg, anti-D immunoglobulin, corticosteroids, splenectomy, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, danazol, cyclosporin A, mycophenolate mofetil, or fostamatinib.
- If receiving weekly thrombopoietin receptor agonist dosing, the last dose must have been administered ≥7 days before the first dose of BIVV020. If receiving daily thrombopoietin receptor agonist dosing, the last dose must have been administered ≥24 hours before the first dose of BIVV020
- If applicable, concurrent administration of ITP medications (eg. corticosteroids, IVIg, azathioprine, danazol, cyclosporin A, mycophenolate mofetil, or thrombopoietin receptor agonists) is acceptable provided the patient has been on a stable dose for at least 1 month.
- If previously dosed with rituximab, the last dose of rituximab must have been administered at least 12 weeks before the first dose of BIVV020
- Documented vaccinations against encapsulated bacterial pathogens (Neisseria meningitidis, including serogroup B where available, Haemophilus influenzae, and Streptococcus pneumoniae) within 5 years of enrollment
- Contraceptive use for women of childbearing potential and men who are sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential
