Brief summary
The study is being conducted to validate the clinical performance of the T-TAS 01 HD assay for measurement of thrombogenicity in patients with thrombocytopenia receiving a platelet transfusion.
Detailed description
This study will measure the improvement in thrombogenicity following platelet transfusion in patients with thrombocytopenia, using the T-TAS 01 HD assay, with a comparison with clinical truth, defined as the confirmation of increased platelet count attributed to platelet transfusion. The study will be conducted at a minimum of 3 locations in the United States and will enroll up to 90 subjects with thrombocytopenia and 50 healthy control subjects. The following subject populations will be enrolled into the study (enrollment numbers indicated in parentheses): * Ostensibly healthy subjects with a normal platelet count and without a history of hemostasis abnormalities, for establishing expected values for quality control (N = up to 50) * Subjects with thrombocytopenia who are planned to receive a platelet transfusion who have pre-transfusion and post-transfusion blood samples collected for testing (N = 50; up to 90 will be enrolled in the event that some subjects do not receive platelet transfusions after enrollment) Subjects will be recruited prospectively, and informed consent will be obtained after confirmation that the enrollment criteria described in Section 5a are satisfied. Blood samples will be collected after enrollment, and subject participation will be complete after all blood samples are collected and all necessary information is collected to complete the case report form (CRF). Blood sample testing with the T-TAS 01 and thromboelastography (TEG) assays will occur locally at each investigational site. Other required laboratory measurements (i.e. CBC) will be performed either locally or remotely, depending on the local availability.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Baseline thrombogenicity | Baseline | Proportion of T-TAS 01 HD area under the curve (AUC) \< 700 |
| Improvement in thrombogenicity | Day 1 after platelet transfusion | Difference in proportion of T-TAS 01 HD AUC \< 700 between pre-transfusion and post-transfusion measurements |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Correlation with bleeding risk | Day 1 after transfusion | Comparison of T-TAS 01 HD AUC results stratified by major and minor bleeding according to the modified WHO Bleeding Scale |
| Comparison of pre-and post-transfusion thrombogenicity | Day 1 after platelet transfusion | Quantitative comparison of T-TAS 01 HD AUC results before and after platelet transfusion |
| Prediction of future platelet transfusions | Day 1 after platelet transfusion | Quantitative and qualitative comparison of post-transfusion T-TAS 01 HD results with the number of additional platelet transfusions within the following 14 days |
