简要总结
The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and other 11 well-known hospitals in China. In order to report the efficacy and safety of high-dose dexamethasone compared to conventional dose prednisone for the first-line treatment of adults with primary immune thrombocytopenia(ITP).
详细描述
The investigators are undertaking a parallel group, multicentre, randomised controlled trial of 300 adults with ITP from 11 medical centers in China. Part of the participants are randomly selected to receive high-dose dexamethasone treatment and the other part are selected to receive conventional dose of prednisone treatment. 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 high-dose dexamethasone compared to conventional dose prednisone for the first-line treatment of adults with ITP.

结局指标
主要结局
Proposed criteria for assessing response to ITP treatments
时间窗: The time frame is up to 28 days per subject
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.
