About this study

Official title: Efficacy of TPO-RA in the Management of Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) in Patients Older Than 14 Years With Poor First-line Response: a Multi-center, Prospective, One-arm Study

This multi-center study aims to study the efficacy of TPO-RAs' transformation in Chinese ITP patients older than 14 years. This study will be conducted in ITP patients who had not responded to first-line in the previous treatment .

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of TPO-RAs' transformation in Chinese ITP patients older than 14 years who had not responded to first-line in the previous treatment.

100 eligible subjects will be enroll ed in this study.The dose will be adjusted according to the subject platelet count during the period from week 1 to week 6.

Being tested
TPO-RA

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TPO-RADrug

    Also called TPO-RAs

    The subjects will receive an initial dose of TPO-RA once daily. Platelet counts were collected weekly until week 6 of the study. Dosage was adjusted to maintain platelet levels between 50×10^9/L and 150×10^9/L according to platelet count. TPO-RA was administered once a day for 4 weeks. If the platelet count dose not reach 30×10^9/L, the treatment was stopped. If the platelet count is more than 400×10^9/L after taking TPO-RA once a day for 2 consecutive weeks, the treatment will be stopped.

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment response

    Percentage of participants whose platelet count achieving response (R) within 6weeks.

    Measured: From the start of study treatment (Day 1) up to the end of week 6

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Treatment response

    Percentage of participants achieving a platelet count >=50×10^9/L at week 1,2,3,4,5and 6 of treatment.

    Measured: From the start of study treatment (Day 1) up to the end of week 1,2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

  2. Treatment response

    Percentage of participants achieving a platelet count >=100×10^9/L at week 1,2,3,4,5and 6 of treatment.

    Measured: From the start of study treatment (Day 1) up to the end of week 1,2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

  3. Duration of response

    Percentage of participants whose platelet count achieving persistence response (R) within 6weeks(defined as the proportion of subjects with a platelet count of ≥30×109/L for at least 4 weeks of the 6-week treatment period without remedial therapy).

    Measured: From the start of study treatment (Day 1) up to the end of week 6

  4. Concomitant medication

    The percentage of patients with reduced concomitant medication, reduced bleeding and remedial treatment.

    Measured: From the start of study treatment (Day 1) up to the end of week 6

  5. Adverse events

    Incidence of adverse events.

    Measured: From the start of study treatment (Day 1) up to the end of week 6

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?
