A phase II, open-label, sequential-cohort, dose-escalation study of romiplostim in Japanese patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura
International Journal of Hematology, 06/26/09
Shirasugi Y et al. - No binding antibodies to romiplostim or thrombopoietin were detected. Romiplostim is safe and well tolerated in Japanese patients with chronic ITP and is effective in producing platelet count increases, consistent with the results from studies in non-Japanese patients. On the basis of these findings, a starting dose of 3ug/kg was recommended for phase III evaluation of romiplostim in Japanese patients with chronic ITP.
