Argenx is conducting a Phase 3 clinical study titled A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Arm Study Followed by an Open-Label Arm to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Efgartigimod IV in Adult Participants With Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia. The study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of efgartigimod IV in treating primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition characterized by low platelet counts, which can lead to excessive bleeding and bruising.
The intervention being tested is efgartigimod IV, a biological treatment administered via intravenous infusion. This treatment is designed to improve platelet counts in patients with ITP by modulating the immune system.
The study design is interventional, with participants randomly allocated to receive either efgartigimod IV or a placebo during the double-blinded treatment period. This is followed by an open-label phase where all participants receive efgartigimod IV. The study employs a quadruple masking approach to ensure unbiased results, with the primary purpose of treatment evaluation.
The study began on October 18, 2024, with primary completion expected in 2025. The last update was submitted on July 16, 2025, indicating ongoing recruitment and progress.
This study update could positively impact Argenx’s stock performance by reinforcing investor confidence in the company’s innovative treatment pipeline. Success in this trial could position Argenx favorably against competitors in the autoimmune disease treatment market.
The study is currently recruiting, and further details are available on the ClinicalTrials portal.
