About this study

Official title: Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study With Open-Label Extension to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Avatrombopag for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Thrombocytopenia in Subjects With Active Non-Hematological Cancers

Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of avatrombopag in subjects with chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of ovarian, lung (small cell and non-small cell) and bladder cancer.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will receive placebo controlled test treatment for one cycle of chemotherapy followed by an observational cycle. Subjects will have the option to continue into an open label extension period for all remaining chemotherapy cycles within the current regimen. After the follow-up visit, all subjects will continue to a long-term safety follow-up period.

Being tested
Avatrombopag, Placebo Oral Tablet

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects Who do Not Require Platelet Transfusion, Dose Reduction in Chemotherapy by 15%, or Chemotherapy Delay by >=4 Days

    Measured: Randomization up to 33 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Duration of Severe Thrombocytopenia Defined as a Platelet Count <50 x 10^9/L

    The duration of severe thrombocytopenia is defined as the total number of days with a platelet count <50×10^9/L during the period after post-chemotherapy study drug treatment in Cycle X+1 through Chemotherapy Day of Cycle X+2.

    Measured: Randomization up to 33 days

  2. Change in Platelet Count From Baseline (Nadir)

    Comparison of avatrombopag 60 mg vs. placebo, adjusted for the number of chemotherapy agents currently receiving per IWRS (1, ≥2).

    Cycle X nadir is defined as the lowest platelet count value prior to the first dose of study drug; Cycle X+1 nadir is defined as the lowest platelet count value during the period after post-chemotherapy study drug treatment in Cycle X+1 through Chemotherapy Day in Cycle X+2.

    Measured: Randomization up to 33 days

  3. Percentage of Subjects Who Did Not Have Major or Non-major Clinically Relevant Bleeding During the Period After Post-chemotherapy Study Drug Treatment in Cycle X+1 Through Chemotherapy Day of Cycle X+2.

    Measured: Randomization up to 33 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Avatrombopag in people with Chemotherapy-induced Thrombocytopenia, run by Sobi, Inc. at 55 sites in 7 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 9 inclusion and 7 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 28 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 55 sites in United States, Ukraine, Russia, China, Poland and 2 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. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Nov 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Subjects Who do Not Require Platelet Transfusion, Dose Reduction in Chemotherapy by 15%, or Chemotherapy Delay by >=4 Days (time frame: Randomization up to 33 days). 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 NCT03471078, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Sep 2023.
