Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This protocol will provide open label romiplostim to adult thrombocytopenic subjects. Romiplostim will be administered by subcutaneous injection once per week. Dose adjustment will be based on platelet counts, and will be allowed throughout the duration of the study. Rescue therapies are allowed at any time during the study. Reductions in concurrent ITP therapies may occur at any time when platelet counts are > 50,000.

Romiplostim

Biological: Romiplostim
Romiplostim will be administered subcutaneously QW. Romiplostim will be manufactured and packaged and distributed using Amgen's clinical study investigational product distribution procedures. Romiplostim is presented as a lyophilized, white powder in 5.0 mL glass vials.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Adverse Events [Duration of Treatment plus 30 days or End of Study (whichever is later). Approximately 205 weeks.]

    One or more occurences of one or more adverse events within the participant during the study. Participants with more than one event were only counted once

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Platelet Response (Definition 1) [Duration of treatment (up to 201 weeks)]

    Platelet response using definition1 . (a doubling of baseline platelet count and a platelet count of >=50 x 10^9/L

  2. Platelet Response (Definition 2) [Duration of treatment (up to 201 weeks)]

    Platelet response using definition 2 (a platelet count increase of >=20 x 109/L from baseline)

More Information

Certain Agreements

Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.

The Clinical Trial Agreement generally does not restrict an investigator's discussion of trial results after completion. The Agreement permits Amgen a limited period of time to review material discussing trial results (typically up to 45 days and possible extension). Amgen may remove confidential information, but authors have final control and approval of publication content. For multi-center studies, the investigator agrees not to publish any results before the first multi-center publication.
