Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different doses of hetrombopag compared to placebo, measured by the proportion of subjects that can complete two planned consecutive chemotherapy cycles with no modification of chemotherapy regimen (i.e., delayed start, dose reduction, omission, or discontinuation) because of thrombocytopenia [platelet count <100×109/L], to determine an optimal dose of hetrombopag and to demonstrate its superiority over placebo.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Proportion of treatment "responders" who do not require modification of chemotherapy regimen because of thrombocytopenia (PC <100×109/L) during two planned consecutive chemotherapy cycles without the use of rescue treatment. [56 days after the first dose of study drug]

    Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test will be used to make a comparison between each hetrombopag group and the placebo group.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Time to first platelet response, defined by PC ≥100×109/L. [56 days after the first dose of study drug]

    Will be analyzed by a log-rank test stratified by the randomization stratification factors. The Kaplan-Meier (KM) method will be used to describe the time-to-event data.

  2. Proportion of subjects achieving PC ≥100×109/L. [14 days after the first dose of study drug]

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test

  3. Time duration of PC ≥100×109/L. [42 days after the start of the first chemotherapy cycle]

    Will be analyzed with the log rank test and KM plots

  4. PC nadir from the start of the first on-study chemotherapy cycle through the end of the double-blind treatment period. [42 days after the start of the first chemotherapy cycle]]

    An Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) will be used.

  5. Time duration of severe thrombocytopenia, defined as a PC of 50×109/L [56 days after the first dose of study drug]

    Will be analyzed with the log rank test and KM plots.

  6. Proportion of subjects without serious bleeding events, defined as grade ≥ 2, according to the World Health Organization Bleeding scale. [56 days after the first dose of study drug]

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test.

  7. Proportion of subjects with at least single incidence of platelet transfusion or other rescue treatment. [56 days after the first dose of study drug]

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test.

  8. Proportion of patients without chemotherapy regimen modifications due to any cause. [14 days after the first dose of study drug]

    Will be analyzed with the CMH test.

  9. Number adverse events (AEs) as assessed by CTCAE v5.0. [up to 140 days of treatment with study drug plus 6 months of follow-up.]

    Arithmetic summary statistics will be provided.
