About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Romiplostim N01 for Chemotherapy-Induced Thrombocytopenia (CIT) in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults (CAYA) With Hematological and Solid Tumors

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of romiplostim N01 in treating chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) in children and adolescents/young adults (CAYA; aged 6-24 years) with hematologic malignancies or solid tumors. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • What proportion of participants achieve platelet count recovery (≥100×10⁹/L or an increase of ≥30×10⁹/L from baseline) within 3 weeks of romiplostim N01 treatment?
  • What is the safety profile of romiplostim N01 in this population, including the incidence and severity of adverse events (especially bleeding and thrombosis)? This is a single-arm study (no comparison group). Researchers will assess the outcomes against predefined efficacy thresholds and historical data (e.g., a 60.7% response rate reported for another TPO-RA, hetrombopag).

Participants will:

  • Receive weekly subcutaneous injections of romiplostim N01 (starting dose: 2 µg/kg).
  • Have their romiplostim dose adjusted weekly based on platelet counts (increase by 1-2 µg/kg if platelets <99×10⁹/L, maximum dose 10 µg/kg, stop when target recovery is met).
  • Undergo frequent monitoring, including blood tests (especially platelet counts), vital signs, physical exams, and assessment for adverse events and bleeding throughout the treatment and follow-up period.
Read the detailed description

This prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase II clinical trial investigates the efficacy and safety of romiplostim N01, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist (TPO-RA), for treating chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) in children, adolescents, and young adults (CAYA) aged 6-24 years with hematologic malignancies or solid tumors. Romiplostim N01 binds to the c-MPL receptor on megakaryocytes and their precursors, activating JAK-STAT and MAPK-ERK signaling pathways to stimulate platelet production. Participants receive weekly subcutaneous injections of romiplostim N01 (250 μg/vial; Qilu Pharmaceutical) starting at 2 μg/kg. Doses are adjusted weekly based on platelet counts: increased by 2 μg/kg if platelets are <50 × 10⁹/L, by 1 μg/kg if 50-99 × 10⁹/L, up to a maximum of 10 μg/kg. Treatment continues for up to 2 weeks but stops early if platelets reach ≥100 × 10⁹/L or increase by ≥30 × 10⁹/L from baseline.

The study involves 10 site visits over 36 days, including screening (≤14 days), baseline (Day 0), treatment (Days 1, 3, 5, 8, 15), and follow-up (Days 22, 29, 36). Serial assessments include platelet counts (primary efficacy endpoint), hemoglobin, neutrophil levels, vital signs, physical examinations, ECOG performance status, and laboratory evaluations (renal/hepatic function, coagulation). Safety is rigorously monitored using NCI CTCAE v5.0 for adverse events (AEs), WHO bleeding scale for hemorrhage, and active surveillance for thrombosis. Rescue therapies (e.g., platelet transfusions, rhTPO, rhIL-11) are permitted per protocol-specified thresholds. Data are captured electronically (EDC system) with source verification per GCP standards.

Statistical analysis targets 50 participants (factoring in 10% attrition) to achieve 80% power (α=0.05, two-sided) for detecting superiority over historical controls (60.7% response rate for hetrombopag). The Full Analysis Set (FAS) includes all dosed participants, while the Per Protocol Set (PPS) excludes those with major deviations. The primary efficacy endpoint-proportion achieving platelet recovery (≥100 × 10⁹/L or Δ≥30 × 10⁹/L) by Week 3-is analyzed using Clopper-Pearson method for 95% CI, with missing data handled via non-responder imputation. Secondary analyses include time-to-recovery, nadir platelet values, transfusion requirements, and chemotherapy delays (descriptive statistics, Kaplan-Meier for time-to-event). Safety analyses focus on AE incidence, severity, and causality.

Conducted across 12 sites in China (e.g., Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences Cancer Hospital, Beijing Children's Hospital), the trial adheres to ICH-GCP, Declaration of Helsinki, and local regulations, with ethics committee approval and written informed consent. The operational timeline spans from first participant enrollment (July 2025) to study completion (September 2026). This study addresses a critical gap in CIT management for CAYA patients by prospectively evaluating romiplostim's dosing, efficacy, and safety profile in this population, with rigorous risk mitigation for thrombosis and bleeding events.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Romiplostim N01Drug

    Participants receive weekly subcutaneous injections of romiplostim N01 (250 μg/vial; Qilu Pharmaceutical) starting at 2 μg/kg. Doses are adjusted weekly based on platelet counts: increased by 2 μg/kg if platelets are <50 × 10⁹/L, by 1 μg/kg if 50-99 × 10⁹/L, up to a maximum of 10 μg/kg. Treatment continues for up to 2 weeks but stops early if platelets reach ≥100 × 10⁹/L or increase by ≥30 × 10⁹/L from baseline.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Sidan Li (+86-0316-5917421, lisidan2006@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of patients achieving platelet count recovery to ≥100×10⁹/L or an increase of ≥30×10⁹/L from baseline (time frame: 3 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 7 May 2026.
