Filter by:A comparative study with rituximab (100 mg weekly for 4 weeks and 375mg/m2 for once) shows low dose rituximab may be a useful alternative therapy in patients with ITP.The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and tolerability of two different regimens of low doses rituximab for the treatment of adult patients with ITP.
The purpose of this study is to determine how children with a history of severe, chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) who were treated with rituximab might respond to vaccines. Eligible patients are previously or currently enrolled in a study entitled "Open Label, Phase I/II Trial of Rituximab for Chronic, Severe Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura in Children and Adolescents" and have decided to obtain an inactivated influenza vaccination. These patients will be invited to provide one blood sample prior to vaccination and a second sample following vaccination to quantify immune response to vaccination.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of rituximab in children ages 18 months to 18 years, who have severe, chronic ITP. Eligible patients with either primary or secondary ITP are treated with rituximab once a week for 4 doses, and then followed for up to one year. Response is defined as having a platelet count greater than or equal to 50,000/mL on four consecutive weekly measures beginning anytime in weeks 9 - 12.
The aim of our study is to evaluate the efficacy of rapamycin with Refractory Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (RITP) and explore the further mechanism.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) are effective in the treatment of refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (RITP).
The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate and response duration with the combination of eltrombopag and high-dose dexamethasone
It is about a multicentric study prospective of more than patients' 60 years with a thrombopenia isolated of less than 100 G/L blood platelet without cause found to estimate so certain examinations realized in the diagnosis (medullary cytogenetics, dosage of the TPO, the Anti-platelet antibodies, isotopic lifetime of platelet) are in favour of the diagnosis of PTI.
This is a study to investigate if eltrombopag can be used instead of Intravenous Immune Globulin (IVIG) in patients with ITP, to adequately raise their platelet count when they undergo minor or major surgery. Eltrombopag is a daily, oral pill approved for treatment of ITP. IVIG is a blood product frequently used to treat ITP. Patients with ITP who need surgery have to get treatment to increase their platelet count. IVIG is commonly used for this purpose but eltrombopag may be more effective and convenient for patients.
With conventional treatments (i.e. iv Ig, steroids) the overall response rate of ITP secondary to LPD is generally lower than in primary ITP, and usually not higher than 50% (95% CI 27-72). Eltrombopag which has proved very effective in primary ITP could be effective also in ITP secondary to LPDs. This novel ITP specific treatment might spare these patients not only from bleeding risk but also from toxic or inappropriate cytotoxic therapies, not otherwise demanded by the burden of the underlying disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy, safety and tolerability of blisibimod when administered on top of standard-of-care to subjects with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP).
