About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Immune Thrombocytopenia focused on measuring recombinant human thrombopoietin, immune thrombocytopenia, pregnancy

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 50 Years (Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Subject is between 18-50 years old.
  2. After 12 weeks gestation.
  3. Diagnosed with ITP meeting the diagnostic criteria for immune thrombocytopenia.
  4. Patients who have no response or relapsed after Corticosteroid or IVIG.
  5. Patients developed refractoriness to platelet transfusion.
  6. To show a platelet count < 30×10^9/L, and with bleeding manifestations.
  7. Willing and able to sign written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Received chemotherapy or anticoagulants or other drugs affecting the platelet counts within 3 months before the screening visit.
  2. Received second-line ITP-specific treatments (eg, cyclophosphamide, 6-mercaptopurine, vincristine, vinblastine, etc) within 3 months before the screening visit.
  3. Current HIV infection or hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus infections.
  4. Severe medical condition (lung, hepatic or renal disorder) other than chronic ITP. Unstable or uncontrolled disease or condition related to or impacting cardiac function (e.g., unstable angina, congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension or cardiac arrhythmia)
  5. Have a known diagnosis of other autoimmune diseases, established in the medical history and laboratory findings with positive results for the determination of antinuclear antibodies, anti-cardiolipin antibodies, lupus anticoagulant or direct Coombs test.
  6. Patients who are deemed unsuitable for the study by the investigator.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

rhTPO

Arm Description

rhTPO will be given intravenously at a dose of 300U/kg every day. Dose will be tapered to 300U/kg every other day when platelet count rise over 50×10^9/L. Maintenance will be continued after delivery and the dose will be further reduced to 300U/kg per week.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Early Response
Response rate (CR+R) at the 14th day, the 10th week from the initial injection of rhTPO, ante partum and one month after delivery. CR is defined as platelet count ≥ 100×109/L, and R is defined as platelet count of >30×109/L with at least a doubling of the baseline value.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Safety
Adverse events in patients and infants.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This clinical trial is undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, aims at evaluating efficacy and safety of rhTPO in management of ITP in pregnancy.
Detailed Description
The investigators are undertaking a single-center, non-randomized, non-controlled trial of 30 ITP patients in pregnancy from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. ITP patients in pregnancy who failed to respond to prednisone, IVIG and developed refractoriness to platelet transfusion will be given rhTPO intravenously at a dose of 300U/kg every day. Dose will be tapered to 300U/kg every other day when platelet count rise over 50×10^9/L. Maintenance will be continued after delivery and the dose will be further reduced to 300U/kg per week. Platelet count, bleeding and other symptoms will be evaluated before and after treatment. Adverse events will be recorded throughout the study.
