Active clinical trials for "Purpura, Thrombocytopenic, Idiopathic"

Patients above age 18 with a first episode of immune thrombocytopenia are randomized 1:1 between 2-4 weeks of daily prednisone (1 mg/kg/d) with subsequent dose tapering (arm A) and six 3-week cycles of pulsed dexamethasone (0.6 mg/kg/d, days 1-4; arm B). The primary endpoint is duration of remission defined as platelets ≥50/nl.

The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and other well-known hospitals in China. In order to study the efficacy and safety of different dose and frequency Recombinant Human thrombopoietin in treating the primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)

The study aims to investigate immunomodulatory effects of thrombopoietin-receptor Agonist (TPO-RA) in patients with primary ITP, who failed first-line therapy or who became intolerant to it. It is hypothesized that the early phase of this autoimmune disease may exhibit a stronger immunomodulatory potential in response to a stimulus, such as romiplostim. Such a process may subsequently be capable to induce regulatory mechanisms or tolerance. Romiplostim (a thrombopoietin-receptor agonist, TPO-RA) will be administered subcutaneously once weekly over 22 weeks with a starting dose of 1mcg/kg body weight. The dose will be adjusted based on platelet counts as described in the summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC).

Study rationale is based on the data that in previous clinical studies of eltrombopag in ITP there are some patients who have been reported as non responders at the maximal approved dose of 75 mg daily. The trend in both normal volunteers and in patients with ITP suggest and increasing response rate with increased doses of eltrombopag up to a dose of 75mg. Previously published data has shown no overt increase in toxicity in normal volunteers, oncology patients and aplastic anemia patients treated with escalated doses as high or higher than those proposed in this study. It therefore seems possible that in ITP patients who did not respond to a dose of 75mg daily, eltrombopag could be more effective at a higher dose. We propose a double blind randomized controlled trial in ITP patients who have been defined as non-responders at the maximum dose (75mg) of eltrombopag, assessing efficacy and toxicity at higher daily doses (100mg, 125 mg, 150 mg)

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of BMS-986004 when administered in subjects with ITP.

A clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of a drug called eltrombopag in adult patients affected of primary immune thrombocytopenia as first treatment to address the disease.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of eltrombopag in children with previously treated chronic immune thrombocytopenia who are between 1 and 17 years of age. This is a 2 part study. In part 1, patients will be randomized to receive either eltrombopag or placebo for 13 weeks. All patients who complete part 1 will enter part 2. In part 2, all patients will receive 24 weeks of eltrombopag.

Core Study: To demonstrate that the efficacy of avatrombopag (in addition to standard of care) is superior to placebo (in addition to standard of care) for the treatment of adult participants with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura) (ITP) as measured by cumulative number of weeks of platelet response over 6 months of once daily treatment in adults participants who received at least 1 prior ITP therapy. Extension Phase: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term therapy with avatrombopag in participants with chronic ITP (cITP).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of romiplostim in the treatment of thrombocytopenia in pediatric patients with Immune thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP) as measured by durable platelet response.

This trial is designed as a multi-centre, single-dose, exploratory dose-finding, open label trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of Sym001 in 4-9 consecutive cohorts. Subjects will receive a single IV dose of Sym001.
