Trial summary

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. Read more about this study

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers

Study population: Adults recently-diagnosed with primary ITP will be prospectively enrolled into the registry. In cases where prospective data collection is not possible from initial diagnosis, eg if sites see mainly referred patients, those patients with pre-existing ITP of no longer than 6 months duration since diagnosis will be allowed into the registry, provided they are still prospectively being followed up or under ongoing review / treatment at the participating institution.

Who may be able to join

  • Recently-diagnosed (i.e. < 6 months) primary ITP adults patients (≥ 18 years) characterized by platelet counts less than 100x109/L as defined by the International Working Group1.
  • Able to provide written consent for data to be included in the registry

Who cannot join

None listed.

About this study

Official title: A Multi-centre, Prospective Disease Registry for Adults Diagnosed With Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) in International Countries

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.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational disease registry database for recently-diagnosed adult patients with primary ITP that aims to understand the natural history of this rare disease and disease management. Participating investigators will prospectively enter real-world patient data on their enrolled patients with a minimum of 2 years follow up.

Data from this registry will be used to generate descriptive statistics on demographics, clinical characteristics including prevalence and incidence of co-morbidities, treatment patterns, and adverse outcomes (resulting from treatment or disease) on ITP patients on an annual basis. The information will be generated at the national or combined-country level. Furthermore, each institution will have an access to its data and may choose to generate descriptive statistics for its specific institution on a more frequent, ad-hoc basis. New research questions or questions addressing a subset of registry patients to take advantage of combined registry data will require a separate protocol and review by independent committees

The focus of this protocol is on adults with primary ITP, however, in future there may be interest to expand the population to explore secondary ITP patients as well. Hence, this registry is built to allow for some optional preliminary information related to secondary ITP to be captured.

Multi-site participation of this registry project will be rolled out in stages, and will be offered to centres with appropriate expertise. Pilot countries included Australia, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Thailand and Turkey and sites will be selected based on their potential research (interest, resources, and expected patient volume). Additional sites may be added in the future from countries in Asia Pacific, Middle East and Latin America. Japan has an independent national ITP registry run by the government, however voluntary participation of interested Japanese investigators in this database will be welcomed, therefore allowing comparison of data between Japanese and non-Japanese patients.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Primary Immune ThrombocytopaeniaRecently-diagnosed (i.e. < 6 months) primary ITP adult patients (≥ 18 years) characterized by platelet counts less than 100x109/L as defined by the International Working Group.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease progression of ITP

    This will include response assessment to each treatment modality, incidence and characteristics of bleeding events, bone marrow results (if available), development of refractory ITP and effects of any medical intervention (whether beneficial or detrimental) in the overall severity of the disease, according to definitions described by the ITP International Working Group.

    Measured: up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Thrombocytopenia, run by South Eastern Sydney Local Health District at 44 sites in 10 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 2 inclusion and 0 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 44 sites in Australia, Turkey (Türkiye), South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and 5 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Beng H Chong, Professor (+612 91133426, benghock.chong@health.nsw.gov.au), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease progression of ITP (time frame: up to 24 months). 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 27 Oct 2016.
