Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare overall survival rate at 12 months between the two arms, with or without 200 mg of Eltrombopag daily after induction chemotherapy.;Secondary Objective: - Response rate (CR and CRi) at day 45 - Leukemia Free Survival at 12 months - Overall survival at 2, 3 and 5 years. - Percentage of patients with platelets count > 100 G/L at day 45 - Time to platelet transfusion independence (more than 3 days with platelets = 10 G/L) - Number of accident haemorrhage event = grade 3 until day 45 - Number of days with platelets 100 G//L - Time to PMN counts > 0.5 G/L - Time to haemoglobin counts > 8 g/dl - Time to red blood cells transfusion independence - Safety assessment of eltrombopag utilizing NCI-CTC criteria v4. - Evaluation of Quality of Life;Primary end point(s): A 15% increase in the overall survival rate at 12 months with 200 mg of Eltrombopag daily;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): A. Response rate (CR and CRi) at day 45 B. Leukemia Free Survival at 12 months C. Overall survival at 2, 3 and 5 years. D. Percentage of patients with platelets count > 100 x 109/L at day 45 E. Time to platelet transfusion independence (more than 3 days with platelets = 10 x 109/L) F. Number of accident haemorrhage event = grade 3 until day 45 G. Number of days with platelets 100 x 109/L J. Time to PMN counts > 0.5 x 109/L K. Time to haemoglobin counts > 8 g/dl L. Time to red blood cells transfusion independence M. Safety assessment of eltrombopag utilizing NCI-CTC criteria v4. N. Evaluation of Quality of Life ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: survival at 5 years
