Summary

Multicentric non-randomized phase II opened prospective study (10 centres involved).

Primary endpoint:

* To evaluate the kinetics of B-cell depletion by rituximab and its pharmacokinetics in patients treated with rituximab in association with plasma exchanges.

Secondary endpoints:

* To evaluate the tolerance of rituximab, the volume of plasma and the number of plasma exchange sessions required to achieve a durable complete remission, and to determinate the duration of B-cell depletion.
* To evaluate the incidence of persistent severe acquired ADAMTS13 deficiency following treatment with rituximab, as well as the incidence of relapses.

Conditions

Patients will be treated according to the recommendations of the Reference Centre for the management of thrombotic microangiopathies. Infusions of rituximab (375 mg/m2) will be added to this treatment at day 1, 4 and 15, immediately after plasma exchange sessions.
