Official title
Safety and Efficacy of Eltrombopag at Escalated Doses up to 150mg in Patients With Persistent and Chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) Not Responsive to 75 mg
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Study rationale is based on the data that in previous clinical studies of eltrombopag in ITP there are some patients who have been reported as non responders at the maximal approved dose of 75 mg daily. The trend in both normal volunteers and in patients with ITP suggest and increasing response rate with increased doses of eltrombopag up to a dose of 75mg. Previously published data has shown no overt increase in toxicity in normal volunteers, oncology patients and aplastic anemia patients treated with escalated doses as high or higher than those proposed in this study. It therefore seems possible that in ITP patients who did not respond to a dose of 75mg daily, eltrombopag could be more effective at a higher dose. We propose a double blind randomized controlled trial in ITP patients who have been defined as non-responders at the maximum dose (75mg) of eltrombopag, assessing efficacy and toxicity at higher daily doses (100mg, 125 mg, 150 mg)
