NCT ID NCT07214025

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a drug called romiplostim, given as a weekly shot, in 100 children aged 1 to 18 with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who haven't been helped by standard treatments. The goal is to see if it can safely raise platelet counts and reduce bleeding. Children will be monitored for nearly a year to check how well the drug works and if it causes any side effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

romiplostim (a once-weekly injection that stimulates platelet production)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a new, effective option to control bleeding and maintain safe platelet levels in children with chronic ITP who haven't responded to standard treatments.

What could go wrong

This is an early-stage study with only 100 children, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug requires ongoing injections and may cause side effects like bone pain or blood clots.
