简要总结
The investigators are undertaking a multicentre, randomised controlled trial of 120 adults with newly diagnosed ITP from 5 medical centers in China. Part of the participants are randomly selected to receive caffeic acid tablets combining dexamethasone and the other part are selected to receive high-dose dexamethasone treatment. Platelet count, bleeding and other symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment. Adverse events are also recorded throughout the study.
详细描述
All participants' platelet count will be monitored weekly. Response will be evaluated after 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment. If the participant did not get complete response or response after 3 months, he would quit the trail.

- •Female patients who are nursing or pregnant, who may be pregnant, or who contemplate pregnancy during the study period
- •Have a known diagnosis of other autoimmune diseases, established in the medical history and laboratory findings with positive results for the determination of antinuclear antibodies, anti-cardiolipin antibodies, lupus anticoagulant or direct Coombs test
- •Patients who are deemed unsuitable for the study by the investigator

结局指标
主要结局
Proposed criteria for assessing response to ITP treatments
时间窗: 3 months after treatment started
1. Complete response (CR): A platelet count ≥ 100 \* 10\^9/L measured on two occasions \> 7 days apart and the absence of bleeding. 2. Response (R): A platelet count ≥ 30 \* 10\^9/L and a greater than two fold increase in platelet count from baseline measured on two occasions \> 7 days apart and the absence of bleeding. 3. No response (NR): A platelet count \< 30 \* 10\^9/L or a less than two fold increase in platelet count from baseline or the presence of bleeding. Platelet count must be measured on two occasions more than a day apart. 4. Relapses: platelet count falls below 30×10\^9/L or bleeding accrues after achieving R or CR.
