A Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Eltrombopag in Combination With a Short Course of Dexamethasone in Patients With Newly Diagnosed ITP
RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment
Summary
The purpose of this study was to compare the ability of eltrombopag in combination with a short course of high-dose dexamethasone to induce sustained response off treatment in patients with newly-diagnosed ITP versus 1-3 cycles of dexamethasone monotherapy. The unmet clinical need and the potential for eltrombopag when added to steroids to improve the treatment outcome and the potential to induce sustained response off treatment serve as the basis for clinical investigation of eltrombopag in first-line ITP.
