Active clinical trials for "Thrombocytopenia"

Previous studies have shown that increase level of BAFF could promote the settlement of long-lived plasma cells in the spleen of ITP patients treated with anti-CD20. This single-center prospective pilot study, currently in phase IIa, will evaluate the efficacy of a rituximab and belimumab sequential combination treatment. Investigators plan to include 15 patients with persistent ITP over a 24-month inclusion period. Each patient will be followed for 1 year

RATIONALE: Decitabine may help myelodysplastic cells become more like normal stem cells. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies differentiation therapy with decitabine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome.

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.

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).

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with alvocidib in treating patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Lenalidomide may stop the growth of leukemia or lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Alvocidib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving lenalidomide together with alvocidib may kill more cancer cells.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in bone marrow morphology (structure) after long-term exposure to romiplostim.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if IL-11 (NeumegaTM) may increase the platelet count in patients with Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who develop low platelet counts while receiving therapy with imatinib mesylate (Gleevec, STI571), or other tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as AMN107, dasatinib, or SK1606. Primary Objective: 1. To determine efficacy of low-dose interleukin-11, (IL-11, oprelvekin, NeumegaTM) in improving the thrombocytopenia associate with imatinib or other tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy in patients with CML. Secondary Objective: 1. To determine the safety of low-dose IL-11 in patients with CML and thrombocytopenia associated with imatinib or other tyrosine kinase inhibitors

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of romiplostim (AMG 531) in the treatment of thrombocytopenia in pediatric subjects with chronic ITP. We will also evaluate the efficacy of romiplostim (AMG 531) and characterize the pharmacokinetics of romiplostim (AMG 531). It is anticipated that romiplostim (AMG 531), when given at an effective dose and schedule, will be well tolerated treatment for thrombocytopenia among pediatric subjects with chronic ITP.

This is a phase 3b, multi-center, randomized, Standard of Care (SOC)-controlled, open-label, 52-week treatment study to compare romiplostim to medical SOC for Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura (ITP), with a 6-month Safety Follow-up. Patients randomized to romiplostim must complete the taper or discontinuation of medical SOC for ITP as soon as medically feasible after the initiation of romiplostim. After the completion or discontinuation of the study treatment period, any participant who does not transfer in to another romiplostim study will complete a 6-month Safety Follow-up period.

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)
