Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMG 531 compared with placebo in thrombocytopenic Japanese subjects with immune (idiopathic) thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) .
This is a Phase II/III multicenter study comprising of the double-blind, followed by open-label phases to evaluate and compare the efficacy and tolerability of eltrombopag (SB-497115-GR) in chronic ITP patients
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of romiplostim (AMG 531) in the treatment of thrombocytopenia in pediatric subjects with chronic ITP. We will also evaluate the efficacy of romiplostim (AMG 531) and characterize the pharmacokinetics of romiplostim (AMG 531). It is anticipated that romiplostim (AMG 531), when given at an effective dose and schedule, will be well tolerated treatment for thrombocytopenia among pediatric subjects with chronic ITP.
Idiopathic (immune) thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by platelet destruction and thrombocytopenia (peripheral blood platelet count < 150 x 10(9)/L). IVIG therapy is useful in patients in whom the platelet count has to be raised either due to bleeding signs, or where bleeding is predicted (e.g., surgery or parturition). The primary goal of treatment is to maintain the platelet count at a hemostatic level. This study will test the safety and efficacy of IGIV3I Grifols 10% in the treatment of patients with chronic ITP.
This protocol will provide open label romiplostim to adult thrombocytopenic subjects. Romiplostim will be administered by subcutaneous injection once per week. Dose adjustment will be based on platelet counts, and will be allowed throughout the duration of the study. Rescue therapies are allowed at any time during the study. Reductions in concurrent ITP therapies may occur at any time when platelet counts are > 50,000.
To determine if GAMMAPLEX raises the platelet count of subjects with chronic ITP to a threshold of 50 x 109/L, similar to that of published response >60%. Also to assess the safety of GAMMAPLEX and determine if platelet counts are maintained at 50 x 109/L in subjects with chronic ITP for.
This single arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MabThera monotherapy in patients with refractory, relapsing or chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Patients will receive infusions of MabThera 1000mg i.v. on days 1 and 15. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
Previous studies suggest that chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is associated with Helicobacter pylori infection. The objective is to study the effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on platelet count.
This is a multi-center prospective observational descriptive study complemented by a retrospective chart review. Patients diagnosed with ITP and currently treated for ITP by a hematologist or hematologist-oncologist will be recruited from community-based clinics and academic/referral centers. They will be followed prospectively for a period of 12 months. At inception, participants' charts will also be reviewed from the date of enrollment retrospectively to the date of diagnosis or the previous 36 months, whichever is less.
To determine the long term effects of pulse high dose dexamethasone and conventional dose prednisolone in treatment of adult patients with ITP.
