RAISE: Randomized Placebo-Controlled Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) Study With Eltrombopag

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Purpura, Thrombocytopaenic, Idiopathic
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT00370331
Lead Sponsor
GlaxoSmithKline
Brief Summary

The rationale for this Phase III study is to evaluate the 6 month safety and efficacy of eltrombopag in the treatment of previously treated subjects with chronic ITP. The starting dose of eltrombopag, 50 mg, once daily was selected based upon the observed efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics in a dose-finding Study (TRA100773). This Phase III study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase III study, to evaluate efficacy, safety and tolerability of eltrombopag, initially administered as 50 mg oral tablets once daily for six months in adult subjects with previously treated chronic ITP. Subjects will be randomized 2:1, eltrombopag to placebo, and will be stratified based upon splenectomy status, use of ITP medication at baseline and baseline platelet count less than or equal to 15,000/µL. Subjects will receive study medication for 6 months, during which the dose of study medication may be adjusted based upon individual platelet counts. In addition, subjects may taper off concomitant ITP medications and may receive any rescue treatments as dictated by local standard of care. After discontinuation of study medication, subjects will complete follow-up visits at weeks 1, 2, 4 and months 3 and 6.

Detailed Description

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III study, to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of eltrombopag olamine (SB-497115-GR), a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, administered for 6 months as oral tablets once daily in adult subjects with previously treated chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of RespondersBaseline; each on-therapy treatment day; Weeks 10, 14, 18, 22, and 26; and Weeks 1, 2, and 4 post-treatment

The percentage of evaluable participants who achieved a platelet response (defined as a platelet count between 50,000 and 400,000 microliter) at each nominal on-therapy day and 4 weeks post-treatment

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Summary of Median Platelet CountsBaseline; Day 8 through Week 26 on-treatment; and 1, 2, 4 week follow-up visits

Platelet counts were measured by blood draw.

Percentage of Participants Initiating Rescue Treatment On-therapyAnytime from Day 1 to Week 26

Percentage of participants initiating new ITP medication, an increased dose of concomitant ITP medication from baseline, platelet transfusion, or splenectomy.

Maximum and Total Weeks of Platelet ResponseDay 1 through Week 26 on-treatment

Response is defined as a platelet count between 50,000 and 400,000 platelets per microliter.

Percentage of Participants With a Reduction in Use of Baseline ITP MedicationFrom Day 1 through Week 26 on-treatment

Percentage of participants who experienced a reduction in their baseline concomitant ITP medication use

WHO Bleeding ScaleBaseline, all nominal visits on-therapy defined as Day 8, Day 15, Day 22, Day 29, Day 36, Day 43, Week 10, Week 14, Week 18, Week 22, Week 26, and 1, 2 and 4 week follow-up visits

Summary of World Health Organization (WHO) bleeding scores at each nominal visit. WHO Grades 1-4 = any bleeding; WHO Grades 2-4 = clinically significant bleeding

HR-QoL Instrument and Domain Scores From the SF-36v2 Questionnaire at Baseline, Week 6, Week 14, and Week 26 or Early Discontinuation From Study TreatmentBaseline, Week 6, Week 14, and Week 26/Early Withdrawal

HR-QoL Instrument and Domain Scores From the MEI-SF Questionnaire at Baseline, Week 6, Week 14, and Week 26 or Early Discontinuation From Study TreatmentBaseline, Week 6, Week 14, and Week 26/Early Withdrawal

Health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) patient reported outcomes from the motivation and energy inventory-short form (MEI-SF) questionnaire. Scores could range from 0 (worst possible) to 72 (best possible).

HR-QoL Instrument and Domain Scores for the FACT-Th Questionnaire at Baseline, Week 6, Week 14, and Week 26 or Early Discontinuation From Study TreatmentBaseline, Week 6, Week 14, and Week 26/Early Withdrawal

Health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) patient reported outcomes from the functional assessment of cancer therapy thrombocytopenia (FACT-Th) questionnaire (six selected items). Scores could range from 0 (worst possible) to 24 (best possible).
