About this trial

This study is a multicenter interventional research on the first-line treatment of newly diagnosed adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) using romiplostim N01 in combination with glucocorticoids. The primary endpoint of this study is to assess the efficacy of romiplostim N01 combined with glucocorticoids in untreated newly diagnosed adult ITP patients after 6 months of administration.

The subjects will be divided into the experimental group and the control group for treatment.

Experimental group: Dexamethasone (HD-DXM) 40mg/d × 4 days, one cycle. If there is no response on the 10th day, repeat once, administered either orally or intravenously. Simultaneously, romiplostim N01 is administered at an initial dose of 3µg/kg, by subcutaneous injection, once a week, for a maximum of 6 months.

Control group: Dexamethasone (HD-DXM) 40mg/d × 4 days, one cycle. If there is no response on the 10th day, repeat once, administered either orally or intravenously.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Dexamethasone Combined with romiplostim N01

    Drug

    Dexamethasone (HD-DXM) at a dose of 40mg/d for 4 days constitutes one cycle. If there is no response on the 10th day, repeat it once. The administration can be either oral or intravenous. Meanwhile, romiplostim N01 is administered with an initial dose of 3µg/kg by subcutaneous injection once a week for up to 6 months.

  • Dexamethasone monotherapy

    Drug

    Dexamethasone (HD-DXM) 40mg/d × 4 days, one cycle. If there is no response on the 10th day, repeat once, administered either orally or intravenously.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The proportion of patients with continuous remission.

Continuous remission is defined as the maintenance of the therapeutic effect of patients for at least 6 months since achieving remission, without the need for additional ITP-specific treatment.

Time frame
6 months

Secondary outcomes

1

The total effective rate GR

The total effective rate GR = CR + R (Complete response CR, platelet count ≥ 100×10\^9/L, and no bleeding symptoms; Effective R, platelet count is between 30×10\^9/L and 100×10\^9/L, and at least doubles compared to the baseline value, and no bleeding symptoms).

Time frame
6 months
2

The proportion of patients with the initial response (reaching the effective standard within one month of the start of treatment)

The total effective rate GR = CR + R (Complete response CR, platelet count ≥ 100×10\^9/L, and no bleeding symptoms; Effective R, platelet count is between 30×10\^9/L and 100×10\^9/L, and at least doubles compared to the baseline value, and no bleeding symptoms within one month).

Time frame
one month of the start of treatment
3

The proportion of patients reaching the effective standard 3 months after the start of treatment.

The total effective rate GR = CR + R (Complete response CR, platelet count ≥ 100×10\^9/L, and no bleeding symptoms; Effective R, platelet count is between 30×10\^9/L and 100×10\^9/L, and at least doubles compared to the baseline value, and no bleeding symptoms within 3 month).

Time frame
3 months after the start of treatment
4

The proportion of patients reaching the effective standard 6 months after the start

The total effective rate GR = CR + R (Complete response CR, platelet count ≥ 100×10\^9/L, and no bleeding symptoms; Effective R, platelet count is between 30×10\^9/L and 100×10\^9/L, and at least doubles compared to the baseline value, and no bleeding symptoms within 6 month).

Time frame
6 months after the start
