简要总结
The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University in China. In order to report the efficacy and safety of glycyrrhetinic acid combining with high-dose dexamethasone for the treatment of adults with newly-diagnosed primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).
详细描述
The investigators anticipate to undertaking a parallel group, single-centre, randomised controlled trial of 30 ITP adult patients. One part of the participants are randomly selected to receive glycyrrhetinic acid (given compound glycyrrhizin tablets orally at a dose of 225mg per day for 1 month), combining with dexamethasone (given orally at a dose of 40 mg per day for 4 days, two-cycles with an interval of 10 days); the others are selected to receive high-dose of dexamethasone treatment plus placebo. Platelet count, bleeding and other symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment. Adverse events are also recorded throughout the study. In order to report the efficacy and safety of glycyrrhetinic acid combining with high-dose dexamethasone therapy for the treatment of adults with ITP.
