简要总结
This study is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm cohort study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of romiplostim in patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who have not responded to oral thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs) such as eltrombopag, hetrombopag, or avatrombopag.
ITP is a blood disorder in which the immune system attacks and destroys the body's own platelets, leading to low platelet counts and an increased risk of bleeding. While oral TPO-RAs are effective for many patients, approximately 20-30% of patients do not respond adequately or lose response over time. For these patients, alternative treatments are urgently needed.
Participants in this study will discontinue their current oral TPO-RA and receive romiplostim as a weekly subcutaneous injection. The starting dose is 3 µg/kg, and the dose may be adjusted weekly based on platelet counts (maximum 10 µg/kg). The total treatment and follow-up period is 24 weeks.
The primary outcome measure is the durable platelet response rate at week 24, defined as maintaining platelet counts at ≥50×10⁹/L for at least two scheduled visits during weeks 22-24 without rescue therapy. Secondary outcomes include the sustained response rate at week 12, complete response rate at week 24, time to first response, improvement in bleeding events, and quality of life assessment.
Safety outcomes include monitoring for thromboembolic events, bone marrow fibrosis, hepatotoxicity, injection site reactions, and other adverse events according to CTCAE v5.0.
Approximately 60 participants will be enrolled across multiple centers in China. This study aims to provide evidence for romiplostim as a treatment option for ITP patients who have failed oral TPO-RAs.
