and
Chronic ITP
• Virulence factors of H pylori such as CagA
and VacA play specific roles in the primary
colonization and infection
• H pylori neutrophil-activation protein (HPNAP) and the cell wall lopopolycacchride
(LPS) induced the host immune response
which caused polarized T helper 1(Th1)
response of the host.

Eltrombopag (RAISE)
Abs #400
• 6-month, randomized, double-blind,
placebo-controlled, phase III study that
evaluated the efficacy and safety of
eltrombopag in previously treated
adults with ITP with plt counts
<30000/ul
Results:
• Pts n=197 (e=135,p=62)
• E group: 8 times more likely to achieve plt counts 50000~400000/uL
(OR[95%CI]=8.2[4.32,15.38];p<0.001)
• Baseline median platelet counts were 16000/uL in both groups and
never exceeded 30000/uL in the placebo group.
• E group: platelets fose to 36000/uL after 1 week and ranged from
52000 to 91000/uL for the remainder of the study.
• Plt counts returned to near baseline 2 weeks after stopping
eltrombopag.
• Pts responded to eltrombopag regardless of previous therapy.
• Fewer pts treated with eltrombopag had any bleeding or clinically
significant bleeding throughout the trial.
• AEs: overall incidence of AEs was similar.
Eltrobopag (EXTENT)
Abs #401
• An ongoing, open-label study designed to
assess the long-term safety and clinical
benefit of eltrobopag in patients with
chronic ITP
Results:
• Pts n=165 (refractory or non refractory)
• 75% of refractory patients achieved plt counts
≥50000/uL and 2Xbaseline, compared to 84% of
non-refractory pts (p=0.1425).
• Weekly median plt counts in both groups
remained at or above 50000/uL from week 1
through week 39.
• The proportion of pts with significant bleeding in
both groups was lower than baseline at any
point from week 1 through week 39.
Romiplostim
Abs#402
• Long-term treatment with Romiplostin in
patients with chronic immune
thrombocytopenia purpura(ITP): 3-year
update from an open-label extension study
Possible adverse effects of thrombopoietic growth factor therapy
Thrombocytosis
Thrombosis
Tumor/leukemia cell growth
Interaction with other cytokines
Formation of neutralizing antibodies cross-reactive with native
thrombopoietin
Stem cell depletion
Platelet activation and acceleration of pathophysiologic processes
Increased bone marrow reticulin or collagen deposition
Rebound thrombocytopenia below baseline upon sudden cessation of
therapy
Rituximab
• Treat the patients with either ITP or TTP
with CD20 monoantibody.
(Poster)(Abs#2289,2297,3433)
Rituximab (375 mg/m2;Roche France, Paris, France was
infused intravenously Once weekly for 4 weeks.

RITUXIMAB IN ITP: RATIONALE FOR STUDY DESIGN
Objective:
• to evaluate Rituximab efficacy and safety in a prospective
randomized study
Selection of the patients:
• ITP
(ASH guidelines)
• adults
(very high probability of chronic disease)
• ≤ 20 x 109/L platelet count (high risk disease)
• front line
(homogeneous population)

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
Primary
• sustained response: PLT  50 x 109/L at 6 months with no additional
therapy after day 30
Secondary
• safety profile: incidence of serious adverse events
• initial response: PLT  50-100-150 x 109/L day + 30
• activity of Dexamethasone + Rituximab salvage therapy
• identification of factors predictive of sustained response
• immunologic assessment
• pharmacokinetics

ENROLLMENT
• Start enrollment: June 2005
• Stop enrollment in June 2007, after having accrued
101 patients, when the results of the first interim
analysis on 50 patients indicated a 52% advantage
of sustained response for Dexamethasone +
Rituximab arm (81% vs 29%).

CONCLUSIONS
The results of this randomized study indicate that Rituximab plus a
single course of Dexamethasone vs a single course of
Dexamethasone monotherapy:
• improves the rate of initial response (68% vs 27%)
• improves the rate of sustained response (63% vs 36%)
• has increased incidence of AEs with similar incidence of SAEs
• is an active salvage therapy in 56% of patients refractory to
Dexamethasone monotherapy
