Argenx is conducting a Phase 3 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. It is designed to improve platelet counts in individuals 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. The study employs a parallel intervention model with quadruple masking, ensuring that participants, care providers, investigators, and outcomes assessors are unaware of group assignments. The primary purpose of the study is treatment.
Key dates for the study include a start date of July 31, 2024, with primary completion and estimated completion dates yet to be announced. The last update was submitted on August 14, 2025, indicating ongoing recruitment and progress.
This study update could positively impact Argenx’s stock performance and investor sentiment, as successful results may enhance the company’s competitive position in the biopharmaceutical industry. Efgartigimod IV’s potential approval could offer a new treatment option for ITP, differentiating Argenx from competitors.
The study is ongoing, with further details available on the ClinicalTrials portal.
