Avatrombopag for children with ITP switching from eltrombopag
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new platelet-raising medicine, avatrombopag, in children with ITP who have already tried eltrombopag. It aims to see if switching to avatrombopag can safely increase platelet counts and reduce bleeding.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age 6 to 18 years old
- Diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) — a low platelet condition
- Previously tried eltrombopag, but it didn't work well, caused large swings in platelets, or was stopped for other reasons
- No serious heart, liver, or kidney problems
- No other condition that can cause low platelets (like lupus, bone marrow disease, or cancer)

This trial studies avatrombopag to raise platelet counts in adults with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) caused by autoimmune conditions. It may help reduce bleeding risk when platelet levels are very low.
This trial tests whether adding a new drug (telitacicept) to a standard platelet booster (eltrombopag) works better than eltrombopag alone for adults whose ITP has not responded to steroids.
This study tests whether a drug called hetrombopag can help your immune system stop attacking your platelets, so your platelet count stays up even after stopping the drug. It's for people with ITP who responded well to hetrombopag but want to see if they can stay in remission without it.
This trial tests a drug called avatrombopag (a pill) to help raise platelet counts in people who develop very low platelets after a stem cell transplant from a half-matched donor (haplo-HSCT). It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective at reducing the need for platelet transfusions.
This trial compares two treatment approaches for adults with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a condition where platelet counts are too low. It looks at whether adding rituximab to eltrombopag helps control ITP better and more safely.
This trial studies whether “TPO” medicines (like eltrombopag or similar drugs) help people age 14 and older with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who did not respond well to first treatments. It may help raise platelet counts and reduce bleeding, especially when prior therapy hasn’t worked.
