Filter by:Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of rHuTPO/rHuIL-11 in the treatment for chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia in patients with NSCLC receiving gemcitabine and cisplatin or carboplatin chemotherapy.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of romiplostim administered at every other week in ITP patients who attained stable platelet counts ≥ 50 x 109/L for 4 consecutive weeks after weekly doses of romiplostim.
Patients above age 18 with a first episode of immune thrombocytopenia are randomized 1:1 between 2-4 weeks of daily prednisone (1 mg/kg/d) with subsequent dose tapering (arm A) and six 3-week cycles of pulsed dexamethasone (0.6 mg/kg/d, days 1-4; arm B). The primary endpoint is duration of remission defined as platelets ≥50/nl.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if rhIL-11(Interleukin 11) may increase the platelet count in Childhood patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) who develop low platelet counts while receiving standard CAT(cyclophosphamide+Cytosine arabinoside+mercaptopurine,7d) therapy.
The aim of this phase II study is to test a novel concept in the treatment of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), a disease of the bone marrow. With no current cure available, MPN are a group of chronic leukemias (blood cancers) in which patients produce too many blood cells. These increased blood cell numbers cause problems to the patient such as bleedings or thrombosis and some patients may progress to acute leukemia, a life threatening condition. Most MPN patients have a gene mutation called JAK2-V617F. The disease is maintained by mutant MPN stem cells that reside in the bone marrow in specialized locations called "niches". These niches need connections to the nervous system. New findings show that these connections are destroyed by the presence of the mutated MPN stem cells. Research teams found that some drugs (beta3-sympathicomimetics) can restore these damaged niches and at the same time reduce the MPN disease manifestation in a mouse model of MPN. Such sympathicomimetic drugs are already being used to treat patients with asthma or hyperactive bladder. These drugs have shown to have only few side effects. The study tests the effects of the beta-3-sympathicomimetic drug Mirabegron (Betmiga®) on MPN disease in 39 patients that carry a JAK2-V617F mutation. The hypothesis is that Mirabegron will have a beneficial effect on bone marrow niche cells and will thereby improve the disease manifestation in MPN patients. This study should provide a rapid answer whether targeting the nervous system of the niche cells could be useful for patients with MPN and warrants to be tested in larger and more long-term studies.
Multicenter, Retrospective Data Collection of Routine Clinical Use with the Spectra Optia® Apheresis System for Platelet Depletion Procedures.
This clinical trial is undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, aims at evaluating efficacy and safety of rhTPO in management of ITP in pregnancy.
The study is designed to evaluate the association between nosocomial bloodstream infection and the occurrence of thrombocytopenia in surgical critical ill patients.
Chemotherapy-related myelosuppression usually occurs in AML patients, which induces severe thrombocytopenia and haemorrhage, a leading cause of death. This clinical trial aims at evaluating efficacy and safety of rhTPO in management of chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia in acute myelocytic leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ex vivo generated megakaryocytic progenitor cells (MPs) in prophylaxis and treatment of thrombocytopenia caused by chemotherapy in patients with acute leukemia (AL).
