Filter by: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.
The main purpose of this study is to compare how one 50 mg tablet of SB-497115 is broken down in the body by healthy subjects versus subjects with mild, moderate or severe kidney problems. The study is also being done to 1) check on how well the study drug is tolerated by healthy subjects versus those with liver problems and 2) to check if liver impairment affects how the study drug binds to protein in the blood.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability, of AKR-501 (avatrombopag) tablets, as compared to placebo, in the treatment of participants with chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of long term dosing of AMG 531 in thrombocytopenic Japanese subjects with ITP. It is anticipated that AMG 531 will be a safe and well tolerated in long term treatment and that AMG 531 will effectively raise and maintain platelet counts to a desired therapeutic range, when individual dose adjustments based on platelet counts are permitted. This study is available to subjects who have completed any previous AMG 531 ITP study in Japan and meet the eligibility criteria of this study.
