About this study

Official title: A Phase 3 Randomized Placebo-controlled Double-blind Study of Romiplostim for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-induced Thrombocytopenia in Patients Receiving Chemotherapy for Treatment of Lymphomas

To evaluate the efficacy of romiplostim for the treatment of CIT in patients receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of lymphomas measured by the ability to administer on-time, full-dose chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter, international study for the treatment of CIT in adult subjects receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of lymphomas, defined by 2 platelet counts < 30 x 10^9/L at least 7 days apart. The study will consist of a screening period of up to 4 weeks, a 16-week treatment period, an end-of-treatment (EOT) visit, and long-term follow-up.

What is being measured

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

  1. Chemotherapy dose delay or reduction

    Either a chemotherapy dose delay by

    ≥ 4 days or chemotherapy dose reduction by ≥ 15% due to thrombocytopenia as measured in any 2 planned cycles of chemotherapy during the treatment period.

    Measured: 17 weeks

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Platelet recovery

    The time to first platelet recovery, defined by platelet count ≥ 50 x 10^9/L in the absence of platelet transfusions during the preceding 7 days

    Measured: 7 days post transfusion through platelet recovery

  2. Platelet count

    Achieving a platelet count

    ≥ 50 x 10^9/L, assessed 7 days after the third dose of investigational product and in the absence of platelet transfusions during the preceding 7 days

    Measured: 7 days after 3rd dose of IP with no transfusions in preceding 7 days

  3. Depth of the platelet count

    The depth of the platelet count nadir for chemotherapy cycles administered after the third dose of investigational product through the end of the treatment period

    Measured: 3rd dose of IP through End of treatment, up to 43 months

  4. Subject Incidence of Platelet Transfusion

    Incidence of platelet transfusions during the treatment period

    Measured: Through treatment period, up to 17 weeks

  5. Bleeding events

    the duration-adjusted event rate of

    ≥ grade 2 bleeding events, as assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), during the treatment period

    Measured: Through treatment period, up to 17 weeks

  6. Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events, clinically significant lab value changes

    adverse events, including treatment-emergent adverse events, serious adverse events and clinically significant changes in laboratory values

    Measured: Through treatment period, up to 17 weeks

  7. Antibody Formation

    anti-romiplostim antibodies and antibodies to TPO

    Measured: throughout treatment period, up to 17 weeks

  8. Vital Status

    vital status

    Measured: treatment period through end of study, up to 43 months

  9. Changes in health

    myelodysplastic syndromes and secondary malignancies

    Measured: treatment period through end of study, up to 43 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Romiplostim in people with Chemotherapy-induced Thrombocytopenia, run by Amgen.

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 9 inclusion and 17 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 19 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Chemotherapy dose delay or reduction (time frame: 17 weeks). 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 19 Jan 2018.
