Brief Summary
The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and other well-known
hospitals in China. In order to study the efficacy and safety of different dose and frequency
Recombinant Human thrombopoietin in treating the primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)
Detailed Description
The investigators are undertaking a parallel group, multicentre, randomised controlled trial
of 30 primary ITP adult patients from 3 medical centers in China. They will be randomly
assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio into three groups .The patients in group A (total 10 patients) will
receive rhTPO at a dose of 300Units/kg ,daily for 14 consecutive days;The patients in group B
will receive rhTPO at a dose of 300Units/kg ,one times every other day for 7 times.The
patients in group C will receive rhTPO at a dose of 300Units/kg ,daily for 7 consecutive days
.All the patients will follow with a flexible dosage depending on platelet count during the
following 12 weeks.
Platelet counts, bleeding and other symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment, in
order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different dose and frequency Recombinant Human
thrombopoietin in treating the primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)

Conditions
Conditions usually refer to a disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury. In ClinicalTrials.gov,
conditions include any health issue worth studying, such as lifespan, quality of life, health risks, etc.
Interventions
Interventions refer to the drug, vaccine, procedure, device, or other potential treatment being studied.
Interventions can also include less intrusive possibilities such as surveys, education, and interviews.
Study Phase
Most clinical trials are designated as phase 1, 2, 3, or 4, based on the type of questions
that study is seeking to answer:
In Phase 1 (Phase I) clinical trials, researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people (20-80) for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
In Phase 2 (Phase II) clinical trials, the study drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people (100-300) to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
In Phase 3 (Phase III) clinical trials, the study drug or treatment is given to large groups of people (1,000-3,000) to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
In Phase 4 (Phase IV) clinical trials, post marketing studies delineate additional information including the drug's risks, benefits, and optimal use.
These phases are defined by the Food and Drug Administration in the Code of Federal Regulations.
