A Clinical Study of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets for Thrombocytopenia Induced by Anti-tumor Treatment in Advanced Breast Cancer

This study now plans to explore the efficacy and safety of hetrombopag in cancer therapy-induced thrombocytopenia in advanced breast cancer, so as to further guide the clinical application of hetrombopag in chemotherapy-induced platelets.

About this study

Cancer therapy-induced thrombocytopenia increases the risk of hemorrhagic complications, the need for platelet transfusions, and limits the dose of cytotoxic drugs in the treatment of certain malignancies. Thrombopoietin receptor agonist (TPO-RA) has a therapeutic effect on cancer therapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CTIT). As an innovative TPO-RA drug, hetrombopag has a more optimized molecular structure and reduced liver and kidney toxicity. A registrational Phase III clinical study in CTIT patients is ongoing. This study now plans to explore the efficacy and safety of hetrombopag in cancer therapy-induced thrombocytopenia in advanced breast cancer, so as to further guide the clinical application of hetrombopag in therapy-induced platelets.

Treatment and study plan

hetrombopag

Drug

The first anti-tumor treatment cycle (multicenter, open label, randomized controlled):

When platelets were <50*109/L, oral hetrombopag 7.5 mg/day was started. When the platelet count is >100*109/L, the administration is suspended.

2nd anti-tumor treatment cycle (exploratory study): Prophylactic use (60 cases in the test group and the control group): oral hetrombopag 7.5 mg/day (initial dose) was started on d2 after anti-tumor treatment for 14 days.

Primary outcomes

  1. The response rates to platelet-raising therapy in prevention stage

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets

    The response rate defined as the proportion of pts not requiring platelet transfusion or adjustment (dose reduction 20%, treatment delays for ≥5 days, or treatment discontinuation) due to thrombocytopenia, and not developing severe thrombocytopenia (PLT < 25×10⁹/L, or PLT <50×10⁹/L for >7 days).

Secondary outcomes

  1. The response rate to platelet-raising therapy in treatment stage;

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets or rh TPO

    The response rate defined as the treatment of pts not requiring platelet transfusion or adjustment (dose reduction 20%, treatment delays for ≥5 days, or treatment discontinuation) due to thrombocytopenia, and not developing severe thrombocytopenia (PLT < 25×10⁹/L, or PLT <50×10⁹/L for >7 days).

  2. The lowest platelet value after anti-tumor treatment;

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets

    The lowest platelet value after anti-tumor treatment;

  3. The incidence of platelets <50×109/L and <25×109/L;

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets

    The incidence of platelets <50×109/L and <25×109/L;

  4. The duration of platelets <50×109/L and <25×109/L;

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets

    The duration of platelets <50×109/L and <25×109/L;

  5. The time for platelets to recover to more than 100×109/L;

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets

    The time for platelets to recover to more than 100×109/L;

  6. latelet recovery to the highest value after anti-tumor treatment;

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets

    latelet recovery to the highest value after anti-tumor treatment;

  7. the incidence of adverse events;

    Time frame: 30day±3day after the last administration of Hetrombopag Olamine Tablets

    the incidence of adverse events;
