About this study

Official title: See Detailed Description

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.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Treatment response, assessed by the proportion of patients with platelet counts of =50, 000/µL (compared with baseline count of <30, 000/µL) after 42 days of treatment.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety, tolerability, PK, PD, symptoms associated with ITP, and QoL, odds of response vs placebo during weeks 2 to 6 of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SB497115 in people with Purpura, Thrombocytopaenic, Idiopathic, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 30 sites in 13 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites in United Kingdom, Greece, Russia, South Korea, Thailand and 8 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Treatment response, assessed by the proportion of patients with platelet counts of =50, 000/µL (compared with baseline count of <30, 000/µL) after 42 days of treatment.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00102739, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Apr 2013.
