Timeline
Interventions
* Subjects received a first intravenous (i.v.) bolus of 10 mg (filled at 5 mg/mL) caplacizumab via push injection within 6 hours to 15 minutes prior to the first PE on study. The first PE on study could either be the very first PE session for the current episode of aTTP (if the subject was randomized prior to the initiation of PE) or the second PE session (if the subject was randomized after a single PE session). * The first PE on study was followed by subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of 10 mg study drug within 30 minutes after the end of the PE procedure. * All subsequent study drug administrations were daily s.c. injections within 30 minutes after the end of the PE procedure (if applicable) or within 24 hours of the previous dose. * Subjects received caplacizumab up to 30 days after the last PE session.
