Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • overall response rate (ORR: complete response + response rate) of platelets

    1. ORR between treatment group with UBT (-) and control group with stage 1 2. International working group criteria for ITP treatment response will be used for ORR definition

    visit 4 (3 months after randomization)

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • ORR between treatment group and control group with stage 1

    visit 4 (3 months after randomization)

  • ORR of control group with stage 2

    At visit 5 (6 months after randomization)

  • ORR after H. pylori eradication in all patients who were treated and UBT (-)

    3 months after H. pylori eradication

  • Time to response

    from initiation date of study drugs to the date of R or CR (assessed up to 6 months)

  • Response duration

    from the date of R or CR to the date of loss of R or CR / or till last f/u date, whichever came first (assessed up to 6 months)

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

Treatment arm: H. pylori eradication

EXPERIMENTAL

treatment arm: H. pylori eradication at visit 1(0 month)

Drug: treatment : H. pylori eradication

Control arm -1st stage

NO INTERVENTION

At visit 1(0 month) no intervention, observation only from visit 1 to visit 3

Control arm - 2nd stage

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Same patients group with control arm 1st stage. After observation for 3 months during stage 1, the patients of control arm will be treated with same regimen for H. pylori eradication at visit 4 (2nd stage).

Drug: treatment : H. pylori eradication

Interventions

treatment: H. pylori eradication (pantoprazole, amoxicillin, clarithromycin, metronidazole) to treatment group at visit 1 and to control group 2nd stage at visit 4. Day 1-5: pantoprazole 40mg bid, amoxicillin 1000mg bid, PO Day 6 - 10: pantoprazole 40mg bid, clarithromycin 500mg bid, metronidazole 500mg tid, PO

Control arm - 2nd stageTreatment arm: H. pylori eradication

Model Details: treatment group vs control group Patients in treatment group will be treated with antibiotics for H. pylori eradication at visit 1. Control group has 2 stage. Fot the 1st stage (for 3 months), the patient will be observed without any treatment. And at visit 4, at 2nd stage, they will be treated with the same regimen for H. pylori eradication.
