Active clinical trials for "Purpura, Thrombocytopenic, Idiopathic"

The purpose of this study is to explore the safety, preliminary clinical benefit, and activity of BIVV009 in patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenia.

The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University in China. In order to compare the efficacy, safety and response duration of different dose of rituximab in patients primary immune thrombocytopenia(pITP).

The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of BT595 in adult subjects with chronic ITP. The primary objective of this study is to determine the rate of subjects with a response. A response is defined as a platelet count of ≥30×10^9/L and at least a 2 fold increase of the baseline count, confirmed on at least 2 separate occasions at least 7 days apart, and the absence of bleeding. The secondary objectives of this study, in addition to further efficacy assessments, are to evaluate the safety of BT595.

Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of 6-week Eltrombopag to treat immune thrombocytopenia with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Secondary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 6-week and 22-week Eltrombopag to treat immune thrombocytopenia with chronic hepatitis B virus infection.

The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate and response duration with the combination of low-dose rituximab and high-dose dexamethasone in the treatment of adult immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

RATIONALE: Drugs, such as prednisone and dexamethasone, may change the immune system and be an effective treatment for primary immune thrombocytopenic purpura. It is not yet known which drug is more effective in treating primary immune thrombocytopenic purpura. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying high-dose dexamethasone to see how well it works compared to standard-dose prednisone in treating patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated primary immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

The objective of this study is to determine if the safety and tolerability of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% Caprylate/Chromatograph Purified (IGIV-C) is similar when infused at two different infusion rates.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability and safety of IgPro10 in the treatment of patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The main efficacy parameter is the proportion of patients responding to treatment by an increase of platelet count to ≥ 50 x 10^9/L.

The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the effects that eltrombopag (and romiplostim) have on platelets in subjects with chronic ITP. Eltrombopag is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of low platelets in patients with chronic ITP. It is being further studied by GlaxoSmithKline (now Novartis) in other conditions associated with low platelets. This research study is being done because eltrombopag has been shown to increase platelet counts in a different way than other therapies for ITP. The investigators want to further study how eltrombopag and romiplostim affect subjects and their platelets to determine how the study drug should best be used in ITP treatment.

Phase II, multi-center, 3 part, staggered cohort, open-label and double blind, randomized, placebo controlled study involving 3 age-determined cohorts (Cohort 1: between 12 and 17 years old; Cohort 2: between 6 and 11 years old; Cohort 3: between 1 and 5 years old). Daily dosing with eltrombopag will begin with 5 patients in the oldest age cohort in an open label fashion, and a review of safety, pharmacokinetic and platelet count data will be performed regularly. If no safety concerns are identified after 12 weeks, 18 additional patients will be randomised to placebo or eltrombopag (2:1 randomisation). After 7 weeks of randomized treatment, all patients will receive eltrombopag in an open label fashion. The total duration of treatment with eltrombopag will be 24 weeks. If at the time of the aforementioned 12 week review of the first 5 patients no safety issues are identified, dosing will begin in the next lower age cohort with an initial group of 5 patients. The same procedure will be followed in terms of safety review and subsequent enrolment and randomisation of the additional patients. Initiation of the younger age cohort will take place once data from the previous has been evaluated. Doses will be adjusted according to platelet counts and tolerability. The study will include a review of the safety data by a Data Safety Monitoring Board.
