SINAPPS1
Feasibility and acceptability of immunotherapy in antibody positive patients
The SINAPPS1 study aimed at determining which treatment is considered by participants as the most acceptable and least invasive, while still being effective in removing pathogenic antibodies.
These findings have been applied in designing the SINAPPS2 study.
SINAPPS1 completed recruitment on July 2017.
This study was funded by the Stanley Medical Research Institute.
