Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of AKR-501 (avatrombopag) administered in participants with chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) who were enrolled into and completed 28 days of study treatment in Protocol 501-CL-003 (NCT00441090).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Participants eligible to enroll into this rollover protocol will begin study treatment within 2-5 days of their Day 28 study termination visit in Protocol 501-CL-003 (NCT00441090). Participants who met the primary efficacy response criterion in Protocol 501-CL-003 will continue receiving the same study treatment to which they were assigned in the previous protocol in a double-blinded manner, these being one of the following 5 treatments:

* avatrombopag 2.5 mg daily
* avatrombopag 5 mg daily
* avatrombopag 10 mg daily
* avatrombopag 20 mg daily
* placebo

Participants who did not meet the primary efficacy response criterion in Protocol 501-CL-003 who otherwise meet the eligibility criteria for this rollover protocol will be offered open label avatrombopag 10 mg daily.

This is a parallel group, rollover study.
