Active clinical trials for "Purpura"

To determine the long term effects of pulse high dose dexamethasone and conventional dose prednisolone in treatment of adult patients with ITP.

RATIONALE: Rituximab and prednisone may increase the number of platelets in patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving rituximab together with prednisone works as first-line therapy in treating patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

An open-label, dose-adjustment extension study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of eltrombopag for treatment of subjects with ITP who have previously been enrolled in the eltrombopag trial TRA108109 (NCT00540423).

This was a phase II multi-center, randomized, open-label study with two parallel study groups to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PG2 in ITP patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of low doses of alemtuzumab and rituximab are effective in the treatment of patients with autoimmune cytopenias who has failed on steroids, relapsed after steroids withdrawal or required continuous steroids treatment.

This is a Phase II/III multicenter study comprising of the double-blind, followed by open-label phases to evaluate and compare the efficacy and tolerability of eltrombopag (SB-497115-GR) in chronic ITP patients

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMG 531 compared with placebo in thrombocytopenic Japanese subjects with immune (idiopathic) thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) .

This study is performed to compare the efficacy, safety, tolerability and relapse of MMF vs CTX in the treatment of severe HSPN

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% (IGIV 10%) in subjects with primary immunodeficiency disorders.

This study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, repeat-dose, study conducted in two parts (Part A and Part B) examining 30, 50, and 75 mg doses of SB-497115-GR as a treatment for patients with ITP who have failed prior therapy. The study is designed to determine the proportion of patients with a platelet count =50,000/µL after 42 days. In Part B, 99 newly-recruited subjects will be randomized to one of two dosing arms in a 2:1 ratio of active:placebo. During the 6 week study period, subjects will start on placebo or active drug (50 mg) and may have a dose increase to 75 mg based upon their platelet count at day 22.
