Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability (BA) of two lots of E5501 40 mg tablets administered twice as single oral doses to healthy subjects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of eltrombopag in people who have myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with thrombocytopenia who have progressed or are resistant to decitabine or azacitidine. (These are the only 2 drugs approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration [FDA] which can improve platelet counts). The investigators (the study doctor, study staff, and sponsor) want to find out what effects, good or bad, eltrombopag (study drug) may have on people with low platelet counts due to MDS. The investigators will also be testing how well eltrombopag may work at different doses in these diseases.
An indirect comparison to compare the efficacy of eltrombopag versus romiplostim
The purpose of the meta-analysis was to explore the efficacy of eltrombopag versus placebo (standard of care)
Reactive thrombocytosis (RT) in pediatric patients is common, but usually without symptoms. The incidence of RT is different depending on age. Mostly, we reasoned that RT is a phenomenon, nevertheless the diagnostic value of RT is little known. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the association of RT and clinical or laboratory characteristics in pediatric diseases.
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder manifested as isolated low platelet count which results in a tendency for bleeding. Around 10% of childhood ITP does not reach resolution within 1 year thus becoming chronic ITP. Therapeutic modalities at present are aimed to achieve symptomatic relief, do not change the natural course of the disorder and are associated with potential side effects and increase cost. Thus, identifying a new therapy that would decrease the bleeding symptoms, without causing significant adverse effects, could be very beneficial. Preliminary reports demonstrate a beneficial role for Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in the treatment of ITP. Working hypothesis and aims: The use of TCM will improve the status of children with chronic ITP and thus will reduce the need to use conventional medications. The investigators aim to study whether in children with chronic ITP, supplementation with TCM, improves the bleeding symptoms and ITP-related quality of life (QOL) compared to the period prior to the intervention? Methods: The study includes three periods: 1st observation period (1 month), TMC period (3 months) and 2nd observation period (2 months). During all study periods the following data will be collected: bleeding symptoms, bleeding score, platelet count, need for conventional therapy, side effects of therapy and ITP-related QOL.
The purpose of this study is to study the efficacy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) on anaemic and cytopenic haematological disorders including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), aplastic anaemia (AA), myelofibrosis (MF) and thalassemia intermedia who do not have or did not respond to available treatment options.
Primary ITP has wide heterogenous biology, presentation and response to therapy. The immune-genetic assessment of ITP may help to identify differences among patients with ITP and optimize the therapeutic choice.
Thrombocytosis, mostly reactive in nature, is common in pediatric hospitalized patients with infections. Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. Pneumoniae) is the most common pathogen. In this study, the investigators investigated the associations of clinical profiles and thrombocytosis and evaluated platelet counts, leukocyte counts and CRP levels as predictors of hospitalization days in patients with S. pneumoniae infection.
This phase II trial is studying the effects of the drug eltrombopag has on thrombocytopenia (low platelet count). Eltrombopag is approved by the FDA for the treatment of thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) in adults who have had an insufficient response to medications such as corticosteroids and immunoglobulins. Eltrombopag is not approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for the treatment of thrombocytopenia refractory to platelet transfusion and so for this study is considered investigational.
