Brief Summary

This study is an open label, randomized controlled, multicenter clinical trial aimed at comparing the efficacy and safety of the combination of atorvastatin and all trans retinoic acid with atorvastatin alone in the treatment of first-line ineffective or recurrent immune thrombocytopenia.

The study is divided into a screening period (2 weeks), a treatment period (0-24 weeks), a reduction period (25-36 weeks), and a follow-up period (37-52 weeks), with a total of one year from the start of treatment to the end of follow-up (52 weeks).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. The patient signs an informed consent form;

2. ≥ 18 years old;

3. The patient's history of ITP is at least 3 months (persistent or chronic ITP);

4. The platelet count of the subject within 24 hours before the first administration of the study drug is less than 30 × 10^9/L; during the screening period, platelet count is measured at least twice (at least 1 week apart), with an average platelet count of less than 30 × 10^9/L and no platelet count greater than 35 × 10^9/L;

5. First line treatment, such as ineffective hormone or immunoglobulin therapy, or ITP patients who relapse after treatment;

6. Receive concomitant therapy drugs (including stable doses of glucocorticoids within the past month, stable doses of azathioprine, danazol, cyclosporine A, or mycophenolate mofetil within the past three months) for treatment; TPO receptor agonists should be discontinued at least 2 weeks before enrollment; Patients receiving anti-CD20 treatment should discontinue the medication six months prior to enrollment; Patients who underwent splenectomy were enrolled six months after the completion of the surgery;

7. Within the past year, there have been no heart diseases, including NYHA class III/IV congestive heart failure, drug-induced arrhythmias, or myocardial infarction;

8. Laboratory tests of coagulation function showed that the prothrombin time (PT/INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) values did not exceed 20% of the normal reference range; No history of coagulation abnormalities except for ITP;

9. White blood cell count, absolute neutrophil count, and hemoglobin are within the normal range in the laboratory, with no abnormalities other than ITP, except for the following situations: a) Hemoglobin: If the anemia is clearly caused by iron deficiency anemia (excessive loss of blood related to thrombocytopenia) due to ITP, the subject's hemoglobin level below the lower limit of normal values can be selected for the study based on the researcher's judgment; c) Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 × 10^9/L can be included in the group;

10. The main organ function is good, that is, the liver and kidney function is good before treatment, AST and ALT are ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin is ≤ 1.5 times ULN, and serum creatinine is ≤ 1.5 times ULN;

11. The subjects adopted approved contraceptive methods. Female participants must be infertile (hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or more than 1 year after menopause) or have the ability to conceive but have used study approved contraceptive methods during the entire study period until the end of the follow-up period, 2 weeks before the first dose; Women with fertility must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to the first dose of medication;

12. The subjects fully understand and are able to comply with the requirements of the research protocol, and are willing to complete the study as planned.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Individuals who are allergic to known ingredients or excipients in atorvastatin or all trans retinoic acid;

2. Accept medication maintenance therapy (including but not limited to aspirin, clopidogrel, and/or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs) or anticoagulants that affect platelet function or quantity;

3. Accompanied by autoimmune hemolytic anemia, or various secondary or hereditary thrombocytopenia; Such as leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, Evans syndrome, common variant immunodeficiency, systemic lupus erythematosus, cirrhosis, antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, pseudothrombocytopenia, drug-induced thrombocytopenia (such as quinine, heparin, antimicrobial drugs, antiepileptic drugs, etc.), etc;

4. There is bone marrow fibrosis with MF ≥ 2;

5. Participate in other research drug studies (including vaccine studies) or be exposed to other research drugs (TPO receptor agonists or salvage treatments) within 4 weeks or 5 half lives (whichever is longer) before the first use of the medication;

6. Previous ITP treatments, including rescue therapy with platelet transfusions, glucocorticoids, immunoglobulins, immunomodulators, etc., did not end within 2 weeks prior to enrollment;

7. The subject has a history of any arterial/venous thrombosis (including stroke, transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis, or pulmonary embolism) within the past year;

8. Pregnant or lactating women;

9. History of alcohol/drug abuse within 12 months prior to screening or first dose;

10. Previous studies have shown poor efficacy in the treatment of sufficient and sufficient doses of atorvastatin;

11. Previous all trans retinoic acid had poor efficacy;

12. All laboratory or clinical evidence of HIV infection and active hepatitis during screening. Laboratory tests during the screening period indicate active hepatitis C infection or hepatitis B infection. (hepatitis B reference: HBsAg positive and HBV DNA ≥ 500 IU/ml; Hepatitis C reference: HCV antibody positive and HCV virus copy number>upper limit of normal);

13. Life threatening bleeding (WHO bleeding score 3) or estimated need for salvage treatment before the first dose of treatment in patients;

14. History of malignant tumors or accompanying malignant tumors;

15. The researchers believe that there are any other circumstances that may prevent the subjects from completing the study or pose significant risks to them.
