Avatrombopag for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Thrombocytopenia in Adults With Active Non-Hematological Cancers

September 19, 2023 updated by: Sobi, Inc.

Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study With Open-Label Extension to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Avatrombopag for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Thrombocytopenia in Subjects With Active Non-Hematological Cancers

Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of avatrombopag in subjects with chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of ovarian, lung (small cell and non-small cell) and bladder cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Subjects will receive placebo controlled test treatment for one cycle of chemotherapy followed by an observational cycle. Subjects will have the option to continue into an open label extension period for all remaining chemotherapy cycles within the current regimen. After the follow-up visit, all subjects will continue to a long-term safety follow-up period.

Randomization up to 33 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Duration of Severe Thrombocytopenia Defined as a Platelet Count <50 x 10^9/L
Time Frame: Randomization up to 33 days

Randomization up to 33 days
Change in Platelet Count From Baseline (Nadir)
Time Frame: Randomization up to 33 days

Comparison of avatrombopag 60 mg vs. placebo, adjusted for the number of chemotherapy agents currently receiving per IWRS (1, ≥2).

Cycle X nadir is defined as the lowest platelet count value prior to the first dose of study drug; Cycle X+1 nadir is defined as the lowest platelet count value during the period after post-chemotherapy study drug treatment in Cycle X+1 through Chemotherapy Day in Cycle X+2.

Randomization up to 33 days
Percentage of Subjects Who Did Not Have Major or Non-major Clinically Relevant Bleeding During the Period After Post-chemotherapy Study Drug Treatment in Cycle X+1 Through Chemotherapy Day of Cycle X+2.
