Eltrombopag Olamine in Increasing Platelet Counts in Patients Undergoing Transplant
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This phase II trial studies how well eltrombopag olamine works in increasing platelet counts in patients undergoing transplant. Eltrombopag olamine may help platelet counts and the immune system recover from blood or bone marrow transplant.

Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
- To estimate the rate of platelet engraftment by day 60 in patients undergoing cord blood transplant (CBT) or haploidentical donor stem cell transplantation treated with eltrombopag (eltrombopag olamine).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- To assess safety of eltrombopag in this population. II. To assess neutrophil engraftment with eltrombopag in this population. III. To characterize immune reconstitution. IV. To assess overall survival (OS). V. To assess progression free survival (PFS). VI. To assess incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I (CORD BLOOD TRANSPLANT): Patients receive eltrombopag olamine orally (PO) once daily (QD) for 60 days beginning on day -1.
ARM II (HAPLOIDENTICAL DONOR STEM CELL TRANSPLANT): Patients receive eltrombopag olamine PO QD for 60 days beginning on day 5.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Rate of platelet engraftment, evaluated as the number of patients experiencing platelet engraftment of greater than 50K/ul [Up to day 60]
Cumulative incidence will be estimated with death or relapse as a competing risk. Logistic regression will be used to model the association between engraftment endpoints and covariates of interest.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of platelet engraftment greater than 20K/ul [At day 60]
Cumulative incidence will be estimated with death or relapse as a competing risk. Logistic regression will be used to model the association between engraftment endpoints and covariates of interest.
- Incidence of platelet engraftment greater than 20K/ul [At day 30]
Cumulative incidence will be estimated with death or relapse as a competing risk. Logistic regression will be used to model the association between engraftment endpoints and covariates of interest.
- Incidence of platelet engraftment greater than 50K/ul [At day 30]
Cumulative incidence will be estimated with death or relapse as a competing risk. Logistic regression will be used to model the association between engraftment endpoints and covariates of interest.
- Incidence of neutrophil engraftment defined as the first of three consecutive days that the absolute neutrophil count is greater than 0.5 k/ul [Up to day 60]
Cumulative incidence will be estimated with death or relapse as a competing risk. Logistic regression will be used to model the association between engraftment endpoints and covariates of interest.
- Time to platelet engraftment [Up to day 60]
Logistic regression will be used to model the association between engraftment endpoints and covariates of interest.
- Time to neutrophil engraftment [Up to day 60]
Logistic regression will be used to model the association between engraftment endpoints and covariates of interest.
- Overall survival [Up to 1 year]
The method of Kaplan and Meier will be used to estimate the distribution of survival time, and distributions will be compared using the log-rank test. Cox proportional hazards regression methods will be used to model survival parameters as a function of disease and demographic covariates of interest.
- Progression free survival [Up to 1 year]
The method of Kaplan and Meier will be used to estimate the distribution of progression-free survival times, and distributions will be compared using the log-rank test. Cox proportional hazards regression methods will be used to model survival parameters as a function of disease and demographic covariates of interest.
- Cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease [Up to day 60]
The method of Gooley et al will be used to estimate the cumulative incidence of graft-versus-host disease.
- Cumulative incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease [Up to 1 year]
The method of Gooley et al will be used to estimate the cumulative incidence of graft-versus-host disease.
- Incidence of toxicity, assessed using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 [Up to day 60]
The rate of grade 4 and higher non-hematologic toxicity attributable to the drug through day 60 in this trial will be monitored by using the method of Thall, Simon, and Estey. Descriptive summaries of toxicity will be provided by arm and dose.
