Generic platelet drug put to the test: will it match the original?

NCT ID NCT06768619

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study checked whether a generic eltrombopag olamine tablet works the same as the brand-name version in 36 healthy Chinese adults after a meal. Participants took a single dose of each formulation in random order, and researchers measured how the drug moved through their bodies. The goal was to confirm bioequivalence, which could lead to a more affordable option for treating low platelet counts.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
eltrombopag olamine (a drug that boosts platelet production)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could confirm that the generic tablet is equivalent to the brand-name drug, offering a more affordable treatment option for people with low platelet counts.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage bioequivalence study in healthy people, not patients. It does not test whether the drug actually improves health outcomes, and results may not predict real-world effectiveness.
