Active clinical trials for "Thrombocytopenia"

Intracranial hemorrhage despite being rare, several chronic ITP patients experience moderate to severe behavioral problems including learning difficulties, memory affection .These changes could be due to the presence of minute capillary dysfunction

To compare the safety and efficacy of 12 months of low dose prednisone with low dose cyclosporine combined with entecavir in patients with thrombocytopenia associated with HBV-related cirrhosis.

Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an uncommon disease characterised by a low platelet count, which may cause the patient to have a higher risk or increased duration of bleeding. Individual hospitals only encounter a small number of ITP patients each year which makes it difficult to study this disease. By creating this disease registry, we will be able to build a more complete picture of ITP, including treatment practices, through collecting information about the condition from patients across several hospitals in several countries. Research of this kind will help future patients by providing doctors with information about ITP, and about how patients have been treated.

The primary purpose of the study is to describe by a prospective observational study the serious adverse events occurring in patients treated off-label by rituximab for Immune Thrombocytopenia.

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a heterogeneous disorder with variable clinical symptomsHealth related quality of life (HRQoL) could be considered in ITP, as in numerous chronic diseases, as a method to provide information about the effects of medical interventions. Symptoms of ITP, such as spontaneous bruising, menorrhagia, mucosal bleeding and prolonged bleeding with injury, may significantly affect HRQoL in ITP subjects. Treatments for chronic ITP can also be associated with substantial side effects. Restoring and/or maintaining quality of life should be an important goal of treatment. We conducted a real-world multicenter study using SF-36 and ITP-PAQ questionnaires to assess the HRQoL in patients with ITP in the real world, and analyze the influencing factors of HRQoL so as to provide a sufficient basis for clinical decision making.

To compare global DNA methylation status between ITP patients and healthy subjects . To determine the effect of DNMT3A -448 G/A SNP variant A allele and DNMT3B -149C/T SNP variant T-allele on global DNA methylation in both ITP patients and healthy control subjects.

Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is a disease caused by allo-immunisation during pregnancy. If left untreated, FNAIT can lead to severe fetal intracranial haemorrhage. This complication can be prevented by weekly administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) to the mother during pregnancy. Knowledge on long-term development of FNAIT survivors with or without IVIg treatment is very limited but an important subject in the counselling of parents of newly diagnosed cases. To evaluate the long-term neurodevelopmental outcome in two groups of children with FNAIT will be asked to participate in our study in an outpatient clinic setting.

Linezolid is the first approved synthetic oxazolidinone that is active against multidrug-resistant Gram-positive pathogens. Because of its significant efficacy, linezolid is widely used in clinical treatment. However, the side effects of linezolid commonly lead to anemia and thrombocytopenia. This hematological toxic effects limit its prolonged used. The investigators have found that Vitamin B6 application, as a preventive, auxiliary therapy, can relieve anemia and thrombocytopenia. The present study was designed to verify the effects of Vitamin B6 in the prevention of linezolid-associated cytopenias and investigate its mechanism.

This project was undertaken by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and other well-known hospitals in China. In order to report the alteration on the macrophage function in the spleen tissue of primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).

The purpose of this Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to eltrombopag for eligible patients diagnosed with medically significant thrombocytopenia. The patient's Treating Physician should follow the suggested treatment guidelines and comply with all local health authority regulations.
