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 efficacy of H. pylori eradication for the treatment of chronic or persistent immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) patients with moderate thrombocytopenia. This is a multi-center, open label, prospective randomized phase IIl study.

Detailed Description

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

Current treatment guideline of ITP recommends corticosteroid as the first line treatment when patient has active bleeding or less than 30×10\^9/L of platelet, because of side effect and cost issues. Since the first case report by Italian study, several investigators have reported that secondary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) can occur in patients with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. We already reported the efficacy of H. pylori eradication in moderate ITP patients with phase II study (Annals Hematology 2015:94:739-46). To improve the evidence of this strategy for the treatment of moderate ITP, we plan to start this multi-center, open label, prospective randomized phase 3 study.

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

treatment group vs control group Patients in treatment group will be treated with antibiotics for H. pylori eradication at visit 1.

Control group has 2 stage. Fot the 1st stage (for 3 months), the patient will be observed without any treatment. And at visit 4, at 2nd stage, they will be treated with the same regimen for H. pylori eradication.
