Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the efficacy of S-888711 with placebo for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in patients with CLD who are undergoing elective invasive procedures;Secondary Objective: •To assess the safety and tolerability of S-888711 treatment compared with placebo •To assess the platelet response following treatment with S-888711 compared with placebo •To assess the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of S-888711;Primary end point(s): •Proportion of patients who require no platelet transfusion prior to the primary invasive procedure and no rescue therapy for bleeding from randomisation through 7 days after the primary elective procedure.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: On or after Day 8, but no more than 2 days prior to the elective invasive procedure.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): •Proportion of patients who require no platelet transfusion during the study •Proportion of responders: patients who achieve a platelet count of = 50 × 109/L with an increase of = 20 × 109/L from baseline at any time during the study •Duration of the platelet count defined as the number of days during which the platelet count was maintained as = 50 × 109/L •Proportion of patients who require rescue therapy for bleeding at any time during the study •Frequency of platelet transfusions •The change from baseline in platelet count over time (time course of platelet count) •Safety and tolerability •Assessment of plasma concentrations of S-888711;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 63 days
