Study Summary

This trial aims to better understand and find effective treatments for autoimmune cytopenias, which are common in patients with immune system disorders. Current treatments often fail, leading to high costs and health risks. The

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with autoimmune cytopenias, which include conditions like low platelet count, anemia, and low white blood cell count that are resistant to treatment. These patients may also have primary immunodeficiencies (PI).Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to identify specific early biomarkers in the immune system that can help diagnose autoimmune cytopenias and predict who will respond well to therapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on identification of biomarkers rather than testing a drug or medical intervention, there are no direct side effects associated with the interventions being studied.
