Active clinical trials for "Purpura, Thrombocytopenic, Idiopathic"

This is a single-center, prospective, controlled study with one eltrombopag treatment group and 2 control groups, one on standard steroid treatment, and another one untreated. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of Thrombopoietin Receptor (MPL) agonists on shear-induced platelet activation.

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial of add-on rituximab for non-splenectomized adults with acute immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).

The purpose of this research study is to compare the efficacy and safety of higher doses of rituximab to a combination of standard doses of Rituxan + CVP (Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, and Prednisone) in patients with chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP who did not respond to or relapsed after standard doses of rituximab.

The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital, Shandong University and other several well-known hospitals in China. In order to report the efficacy and safety of Rituximab in different frequencies for the treatment of adults with steroid-resistant/relapsed immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).

The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and other 5 well-known hospitals in China. In order to report the efficacy and safety of recombinant human thrombopoietin combining with cyclosporin A for the treatment of adults with refractory immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), compared to cyclosporin A monotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to develop a highly sensitive method for assessing the functional activity of platelets for use in the differential diagnosis of thrombocytopenia and platelet defects.

This is a retrospective and prospective multicenter observational study with the aim to evaluate the real-life use of Fostamatinib in adult patients with chronic ITP, refractory to other treatments.

This is a prospective trial of single incision versus standard 4-port laparoscopic splenectomy. The hypothesis is that there may be a difference in wound infection rates, operative time, doses of analgesics post-operatively, and patient/parent perception of scars. However, the technical difficulty is considerable and the primary outcome is operative time which will be expressed in minutes.

The study aims at determining if dietary phytoestrogens can be risk factors for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Dietary enquiry and phytoestrogens measurements will be performed in blood and urine of patients with SLE in an active phase of the disease, in patient with other autoimmune diseases and in healthy volunteers. Subjects will be premenopausal women and when possible at a define stage of the menstrual cycle. Free blood estradiol will be assayed as a confounding risk factor.

This is a randomized, open-label, five-period, balanced crossover study conducted in approximately 40 healthy adult subjects enrolled at one study center in the USA. Subjects receive five eltrombopag treatments: tablet fasted, Powder for Oral Suspension (PfOS) fasted, PfOS with a high calcium meal, PfOS 2 hours prior to a high calcium meal, and PfOS 2 hours after a high calcium meal, and each treatment is a single 25 mg dose. There is a 10 to 14 day washout between periods, and between the last dose of study drug and the follow-up visit. During each treatment period, subjects undergo serial PK sampling over 72 hours for measurement of plasma eltrombopag concentrations. Safety is assessed by vital signs, clinical safety laboratory assessments, and adverse events reporting.
