ThrombocytopeniaPhase 2NCT01965626
A Multicenter Randomized Open-label Study of Oseltamivir Combined With HD-DEX Versus HD-DEX in the Management of ITP
A Phase 2 study testing Oseltamivir and Dexamethasone in people with Thrombocytopenia, run by Shandong University at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
Oseltamivirphosphate is hydrolysed to its active metabolite-the free carboxylate of oseltamivir. Oseltamivir is a neuraminidase inhibitor, serving as a competitive inhibitor of the activity of the viral neuraminidase (NA) enzyme upon sialic acid, found on glycoproteins on the surface of platelets.

About this study
Official title: A Multicenter Randomized Open-label Study of Oseltamivir Combined With High-dose Dexamethasone Versus High-dose Dexamethasone in the Management of Immune Thrombocytopenia
Oseltamivirphosphate is hydrolysed to its active metabolite-the free carboxylate of oseltamivir. Oseltamivir is a neuraminidase inhibitor, serving as a competitive inhibitor of the activity of the viral neuraminidase (NA) enzyme upon sialic acid, found on glycoproteins on the surface of platelets. By blocking the activity of the enzyme, oseltamivir may prevent platelet destruction in liver.The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and other 4 well-known hospitals in China. In order to report the efficacy and safety of oseltamivirphosphate combined with high-dose dexamethasone for the treatment of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) with high platelet desialylation level, compared to high-dose dexamethasone therapy.
Read the detailed description
The investigators are undertaking a parallel group, multicentre, randomised controlled trial of 50 newly diagnosed ITP adult patients with high platelet desialylation level from 5 medical centers in China. One part of the participants are randomly selected to receiver HD-DXM (orally at 40 mg daily for 4d) combined with oseltamivir (orally at 75 mg twice for 10d), the others are selected to receive HD-DXM (orally at 40 mg daily for 4d ) alone. If platelet counts remained <30×109/L or there were bleeding symptoms by day 10, another 4-day course of HD-DXM was given (days 10-14).For the combination arm, patients with an initial response relapsed during the follow-up period, oseltamivir retreatment could be given for another 10 days at the discretion of the physician's advice and patients' will.
Platelet count, bleeding , platelet desialylation level and other symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment. Adverse events are also recorded throughout the study. In order to report the efficacy and safety of oseltamivirphosphate combining with high-dose dexamethasone therapy compared to high-dose dexamethasone for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed ITP .

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
initial response and sustained response (SR)
CR: platelet count ≥ 100 × 109/L and absence of bleeding; R: platelet count ≥ 30 × 109/L but < 100 × 109/L and a doubling from baseline and absence of bleeding.
Measured: Initial responses were assessed by day 14. Response lasting for at least 6 consecutive months without additional ITP-specific intervention was regarded as SR.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Oseltamivir and Dexamethasone in people with Thrombocytopenia, run by Shandong University at 1 site in China.
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 1 inclusion and 1 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 25 Aug 2020. 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 China. 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?
initial response and sustained response (SR) (time frame: Initial responses were assessed by day 14. Response lasting for at least 6 consecutive months without additional ITP-specific intervention was regarded as SR.). 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 NCT01965626, which also lists 3 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 25 Aug 2020.
