A Study of Efficacy and Safety of Ianalumab Versus Placebo in Addition to Eltrombopag in Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia Patients Who Failed Steroids

150 patients around the world
Available in Spain, Argentina, United States
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded phase 3 study to assess efficacy and safety of two different doses of ianalumab versus placebo in addition to eltrombopag in adults with primary ITP (platelet count <30 G/L) who failed previous first-line treatment with corticosteroids. After completion of the screening period, the participants will enter the randomized treatment period (ianalumab/placebo with eltrombopag) followed by the eltrombopag tapering period. Afterwards, all participants will enter the follow-up period to be monitored for efficacy and safety or safety only depending on how the participants responded to the study treatment.
