About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, Two-Stage Phase Ⅲ Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets in Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Thrombocytopenia

The study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different doses of hetrombopag compared to placebo, measured by the proportion of subjects that can complete two planned consecutive chemotherapy cycles with no modification of chemotherapy regimen (i.e., delayed start, dose reduction, omission, or discontinuation) because of thrombocytopenia [platelet count <100×109/L], to determine an optimal dose of hetrombopag and to demonstrate its superiority over placebo.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of treatment "responders" who do not require modification of chemotherapy regimen because of thrombocytopenia (PC <100×109/L) during two planned consecutive chemotherapy cycles without the use of rescue treatment.

    Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test will be used to make a comparison between each hetrombopag group and the placebo group.

    Measured: 56 days after the first dose of study drug

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Time to first platelet response, defined by PC ≥100×109/L.

    Will be analyzed by a log-rank test stratified by the randomization stratification factors.

    The Kaplan-Meier (KM) method will be used to describe the time-to-event data.

    Measured: 56 days after the first dose of study drug

  2. Proportion of subjects achieving PC ≥100×109/L.

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test

    Measured: 14 days after the first dose of study drug

  3. Time duration of PC ≥100×109/L.

    Will be analyzed with the log rank test and KM plots

    Measured: 42 days after the start of the first chemotherapy cycle

  4. PC nadir from the start of the first on-study chemotherapy cycle through the end of the double-blind treatment period.

    An Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) will be used.

    Measured: 42 days after the start of the first chemotherapy cycle]

  5. Time duration of severe thrombocytopenia, defined as a PC of 50×109/L

    Will be analyzed with the log rank test and KM plots.

    Measured: 56 days after the first dose of study drug

  6. Proportion of subjects without serious bleeding events, defined as grade ≥ 2, according to the World Health Organization Bleeding scale.

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test.

    Measured: 56 days after the first dose of study drug

  7. Proportion of subjects with at least single incidence of platelet transfusion or other rescue treatment.

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test.

    Measured: 56 days after the first dose of study drug

  8. Proportion of patients without chemotherapy regimen modifications due to any cause.

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test.

    Measured: 14 days after the first dose of study drug

  9. Number adverse events (AEs) as assessed by CTCAE v5.0.

    Arithmetic summary statistics will be provided.

    Measured: up to 140 days of treatment with study drug plus 6 months of follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Hetrombopag in people with Chemotherapy-Induced Thrombocytopenia, run by Jiangsu HengRui Medicine Co., Ltd..

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 13 inclusion and 27 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 28 Sep 2023. 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?

Proportion of treatment "responders" who do not require modification of chemotherapy regimen because of thrombocytopenia (PC <100×109/L) during two planned consecutive chemotherapy cycles without the use of rescue treatment. (time frame: 56 days after the first dose of study drug). 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 28 Sep 2023.
