About this study

Official title: A Phase IV Study Evaluating Eltrombopag Concentrations in Breast Milk of Nursing Mothers Taking Eltrombopag

This is a Phase IV study to evaluate eltrombopag concentrations in breast milk of nursing mothers taking marketed eltrombopag (PROMACTA®). Up to 10 subjects (mother-infant pairs) at as many as 10 study centers in the US will be enrolled. Nursing mothers who are registered with the PROMACTA Pregnancy Registry will be offered the option to participate in this trial if they continue to take commercial eltrombopag post-delivery and decide to breastfeed their infant. Information will be collected in a diary. Breast milk samples will be collected before and after infant feedings for a 24 hour period after eltrombopag dosing to evaluate the eltrombopag concentrations in the breast milk. Mothers will also be given the option to have a pharmacokinetic (PK) blood sample collected from the infant.

What is being measured

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

  1. Breast milk eltrombopag concentrations collected from nursing mothers taking eltrombopag

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. AEs in infant reported during the 24 hour breast milk collection period

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Plasma eltrombopag concentrations from infant, as data permit (optional)

    Measured: 1 sample within 2 days

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted25 Jan 2010 (estimated)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing eltrombopag in people with Thrombocytopaenia, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in United States.

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 6 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Breast milk eltrombopag concentrations collected from nursing mothers taking eltrombopag (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 13 May 2015.
