Trial overview
Official title: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Multi-Centre, Dose-Ranging, Parallel Group, Phase II Study to Assess Efficacy, Safety/Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of a Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonist, SB-497115-GR, when Administered as 30, 50, and 75 mg Once Daily for 12 weeks in Subjects with
Trial description: SB497115 is an oral agent which activates the thrombopoietin receptor and increases platelet counts in healthy volunteers. This study is examining several different doses of SB497115 as a treatment for patients with chronic hepatitis C-related thrombocytopenia who are potential candidates for antiviral treatment with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. The study will be conducted in two phases, Parts 1 and 2. In Part 1, study subjects will be randomized to 4 weeks of SB-497115-GR or placebo administered daily without antiviral therapy. Subjects who successfully complete Part 1 (platelet count 70,000/µL for Pegasys and platelet count 100,000/µL for PEG-Intron) will then proceed to Part 2. In Part 2, subjects will receive an additional 8 weeks of SB-497115-GR or placebo administered daily with antiviral therapy.

Parallel Assignment
Masking:
Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Allocation:

Primary outcomes:
Treatment response, assessed by the proportion of subjects with a shift from baseline platelet count (20, 000 to <70,000µL) to =100,000/µL after 4 weeks of study treatment.
Timeframe: 4 weeks
Secondary outcomes:
Mean increase in platelet counts and markers of thrombopoiesis. Safety and tolerability, population PK, pharmacodynamics. Effect of antiviral outcome measures during and after therapy.
