Paschalis Evangelidis: A New Way to Treat iTTP by Targeting the Autoimmune Process
Paschalis Evangelidis, Former Teaching Assistant at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and Eleni Gavriilaki co-authored, adding:
”Excited to share our insightful commentary on immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP):
This piece highlights a promising shift in how we think about iTTP – not just managing acute episodes, but targeting the underlying autoimmune process.
A novel approach using red blood cells to deliver ADAMTS13 antigens in an ‘immune-silent’ way could help induce immune tolerance and reduce relapses.
While still early, this strategy opens the door to more precise, long-term solutions beyond conventional immunosuppression.
A small but meaningful step toward solving another piece of the TTP puzzle.”
