  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants With a Response [Week 6]

      Responders were participants with one of the following: achieved a platelet count of ≥ 50,000 cells/µL after 6 weeks of dosing; or prematurely withdrawn due to a platelet count > 400,000 cells/µL prior to Day 42. Participants were counted as non-responders if any of the following conditions held: The above conditions were not satisfied; They received rescue medications; They satisfied the above conditions after receiving restricted medications during the treatment period; They had achieved a platelet count of ≥ 50,000 cells/µL before Week 6 but not after Week 6; or They withdrew for any reason other than a platelet count > 400,000 cells/µL.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline in Platelet Count at Week 6 [Baseline and Week 6]

    2. Duration of Response [6 weeks]

      Duration of response was defined as the percentage of the cumulative time a platelet count was ≥ 50,000 cells/µL during the treatment period.

    3. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Platelet Count of ≥ 30,000 Cells/µL and Doubled the Baseline Platelet Count After 6 Weeks of Dosing [Week 6]

    4. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved a Platelet Count of ≥ 50,000 Cells/µL and Doubled the Baseline Platelet Count After 6 Weeks of Dosing [Week 6]

    5. Number of Participants With Worst Severity of Bleeding Associated With ITP During the Treatment Period, [6 weeks]

      Bleeding assessments were performed by the Investigator according to the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria bleeding scale: Grade 0: no bleeding; Grade 1: petechial bleeding; Grade 2: mild blood loss (clinically significant); Grade 3: gross blood loss, requires transfusion (severe); Grade 4: debilitating blood loss, retinal or cerebral associated with fatality. For each participant, the most severe WHO bleeding grade observed during the 6-week treatment period is reported.

    6. Number of Participants Who Received Rescue Medication During the Treatment Period [6 weeks]

    7. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) [6 weeks]

      An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product during the course of a clinical investigation, including any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of an investigational product (IP), whether or not thought to be related to the IP. AEs reported after initial study drug administration were considered treatment-emergent. A serious adverse event is defined as any AE that resulted in death, was life-threatening, hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect or an important medical event that, based upon medical judgment, may jeopardize the participant or require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. A treatment-related AE is any AE determined by the investigator to be possibly related, probably related, or definitely related to study drug.

    8. Lusutrombopag Plasma Concentration [Days 8, 22, and 36, after dosing]

      Plasma concentrations of lusutrombopag were determined using a validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry method. The lower limit of quantification (LOQ) for the plasma assay for lusutrombopag was 0.1 ng/mL.

    9. Plasma Concentration of Metabolite S-888711 Deshexyl [Days 8, 22, and 36, after dosing]

      Plasma concentrations of the major metabolite S-888711 deshexyl were determined using a validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry method. The lower limit of quantification (LOQ) for the plasma assay for S-888711 deshexyl was 0.1 ng/mL.

    Comments The primary efficacy evaluation was to test if there was a linear relationship existing such that the higher the dose level, the larger the percentage of responders. The Cochran-Armitage trend test was employed by assigning the score 0, 0.5, 0.75, and 1 to placebo, lusutrombopag 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 mg group, respectively, at the 0.025 level of significance (1-sided) to determine the test statistic for detecting a dose-response in the percentage of responders.

    8. Secondary Outcome
    Title Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)
    Description An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered a pharmaceutical product during the course of a clinical investigation, including any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of an investigational product (IP), whether or not thought to be related to the IP. AEs reported after initial study drug administration were considered treatment-emergent. A serious adverse event is defined as any AE that resulted in death, was life-threatening, hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect or an important medical event that, based upon medical judgment, may jeopardize the participant or require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above. A treatment-related AE is any AE determined by the investigator to be possibly related, probably related, or definitely related to study drug.
