A Study of Pirtobrutinib in Participants With Immune Thrombocytopenia
United States, China, Denmark68 participantsStarted 2025-07-30
Plain-language summary
The purpose of the phase 1 part of this study was to evaluate how well pirtobrutinib is tolerated and what side effects may occur. The phase 2 part of the study will further investigate efficacy and safety of multiple pirtobrutinib dosages versus placebo.
The study drug will be administered orally in participants with Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP). Blood tests will be performed to check how much pirtobrutinib gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it.
The study will last up to approximately 16 weeks for phase 1 dose-escalation and 28 weeks for phase 2 dose-optimization, excluding screening.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Have a diagnosis of primary ITP, defined as isolated thrombocytopenia not associated with another known disease process
* Have documented history of response, defined as 2 or more platelet counts greater than or equal to 50,000/microliter (μL), to at least 1 prior line of therapy. Splenectomy is considered a line of therapy
* Have relapsed or treatment-resistant primary ITP, with no available therapies known to provide clinical benefit
* Have a platelet count less than 30,000/μL on 2 occasions at least 5 days apart in the 15 days before randomization
* Have adequate liver, renal, and hematologic functions as defined by a table
* Are willing to follow contraception requirements
Exclusion Criteria:
* Have a history of any thrombotic or embolic event within 12 months before screening
* Had a transfusion with blood or blood products or plasmapheresis within 14 days (Phase 1) or within 28 days (Phase 2) of randomization
* Have significant cardiovascular disease
* Have a diagnosis or history of hematologic malignancy
* Have hepatitis B virus (HBV) defined as positive for antigen of hepatitis B (HBsAg) or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) positive for HBV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
* Have hepatitis C virus (HCV) defined as positive for anti-HCV antibodies and PCR positive for HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA)
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
