About this study

Official title: High-dose Use of Recombinant Human Thrombopoietin in Patients With Moderate or Severe Thrombocytopenia Induced by Chemotherapy

The research studies the safety and efficacy of high-dose recombinant human TPO in solid tumor patients with moderate or severe thrombocytopenia induced by chemotherapy. Patients with platelet count lower than 50 x 109/L will be enrolled and treated with high-dose rhTPO (300-600U/kg/day) until the platelets increased by 50 x 109/L compared to the baseline or above 100 x 109/L. During the study, the blood routine test will be regularly performed according to the clinical routine (at least once every two days). Finally, the clinical data will be collected and analyzed to validate the efficacy and safety of high-dose rhTPO therapy.

Read the detailed description

Chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia is a common toxic reaction of chemotherapeutic drugs, which may lead to dose reduction, delay or even termination of chemotherapy. Severe thrombocytopenia may cause bleeding and threaten patient's life. rhIL-11 and rhTPO are the only two drugs approved by China Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia. The recommended dosage of rhTPO is 300U/kg. Clinical practice in the real world is full of changes and restraints. In the treatment of thrombocytopenia induced by chemotherapy, the actual dose of rhTPO is often below 300U/kg, due to factors such as Specs, economy and convenience. If the dose of rhTPO is insufficient, it can not give full play to the effect and thus can not achieve the purpose of rapid recovery of platelets. Previous clinical studies observed that the effect of rhTPO depends on the given dose. Dosage in the range of 75U-600U/kg of rhTPO were safe in human. While the 75U/kg dose group had no significant effect on the platelet count elevation, the platelet count in other three dose groups of 150U/kg, 300U/kg and 600U/kg increased by 24%, 32%, and 52% (P < 0.01). This research is a real-world study designed to verify the safety and efficacy of high-dose rhTPO in solid tumor patients with moderate or severe thrombocytopenia induced by chemotherapy. Patients with platelet count lower than 50 x 109/L will be enrolled and treated with high-dose rhTPO (300-600U/kg/day) until the platelets increased by 50 x 109/L compared to the baseline or above 100 x 109/L. During the study, the blood routine test will be regularly performed according to the clinical routine (at least once every two days) and the clinical data will be collected and analyzed. It is based on the patient's actual condition and the treatment measure is more consistent with the clinical practice. The results of this study are expected to provide new options and references for clinical treatment of thrombocytopenia induced by chemotherapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing rhTPO in people with Thrombocytopenia, run by First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong 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 5 inclusion and 15 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 30 Oct 2018. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Lingxiao Zhang, doctor (+8618066910386, 514324869@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Duration of grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia (time frame: From time of randomization to the time of platelet counts recover to 75×109/L and above, assessed up to 20days). 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 30 Oct 2018.
