Plain English summary of protocol
Background and study aims?
Several kinds of illnesses (autoimmune diseases and immune deficient conditions) are treated with Octagam. Octagam is a solution that contains human antibodies, also called immunoglobulins. In this study the data about the treatment with Octagam will be collected to analyse how often and which side effects might occur when treated with Octagam in regular praxis as prescribed by your doctor.
Who can participate?
Only the doctor can decide which disease can be treated with Octagam. People of any age and any gender are welcome to participate.
What does the study involve?
The study collects only data and therefore the doctor might ask you some questions regarding previous diseases or treatments. There will be no special investigations or procedures due to the study. The treatment with Octagam will be regular as prescribed by your doctor without the study.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
All information collected in the course of the treatment with Octagam may make an important scientific contribution, in particular to other patients suffering from the same or similar conditions that may also be treated with Octagam. Octagam is a registered product, the side effects are described in the package insert.
Where is the study run from?
About 1000 patients will participate in this study, which will be performed in several countries around the world (e.g. Austria, France, UK, Brazil, and other). In the USA there will be a related study.
When is study starting and how long is it expected to run for?
The study is planned to start in September 2011. The overall study duration will be approximately 3 years.
Who is funding the study?
A Swiss company called Octapharma, who is producing Octagam, is organising and funding this study.
