About this study
Official title: A Clinical Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Herombopag in the Treatment of Senile Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia
The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Herombopag in the treatment of elderly patients with ITP.
Read the detailed description
This is a single-arm, prospective clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of herombopag in the treatment of elderly patients with ITP. The study will include 80 patients. Screening of patients will be 2 weeks after the longest period, to enter after the treatment period, accept the herombopag 5 mg, once daily, on an empty stomach, oral medication can be eating only 2 hours, and 24 weeks of treatment, and adjust the dosage according to the platelet count. If patients do not respond to treatment after 8 weeks, it is recommended to withdraw from the study and continue safety visits for 4 weeks. During treatment, the patient continues treatment until the investigator assesses the occurrence of intolerable toxicity, disease progression, withdrawal of informed consent, or other discontinuation criteria specified in the protocol (whichever occurs first). Follow-up treatment for patients who withdraw from treatment due to safety or ineffectiveness is determined by the investigator according to clinical practice. Safety assessment during treatment, including vital signs, physical examination, laboratory examination, etc.; Check your blood routine at least once a week. A 4-week safety visit was performed after the final treatment.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
herombopag olamine tabletsDrug
The patient received herombopag 5mg/d at the beginning of the day, was orally taken on an empty stomach in the morning, and could eat 2 hours after taking the drug, once a day for 24 weeks. Investigators will adjust the dosage of herombopag once a week according to the platelet count, with a maximum dosage of 7.5 mg per day. Efficacy and safety were evaluated once a week.

The WHO Bleeding Scale is a measure of bleeding severity with the following grades: grade 0 = no bleeding, grade 1= petechiae, grade 2= mild blood loss, grade 3 = gross blood loss, and grade 4 = debilitating blood loss.
Measured: 8 weeks
Emergency treatment
The proportion of subjects who received emergency treatment within 8 weeks and during the entire study period.
Measured: 8 weeks
incidence of treatment-emergent Adverse Events and TRAE
Incidence, severity, and relationship of treatment emergent adverse events after treatment as assessed by CTCAE v5.0
Measured: 24 weeks

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

What does the primary outcome measure?
Proportion of patients with platelet count ≥30×109/L (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Mar 2025.
