Study Description

Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an organ-specific autoimmune disease, which is characterized by decreased platelet count and skin and mucosal bleeding. ITP is a kind of disease with increased platelet destruction and impaired platelet production caused by autoimmunity. Conventional treatment of adult ITP includes first-line glucocorticoid and immunoglobulin therapy, second line TPO and TPO receptor agonist, splenectomy and other immunosuppressive treatments (such as rituximab, vincristine, azathioprine, etc.). ITP is one of the most common hemorrhagic diseases. At present, the treatment response of ITP is not good, and a considerable number of patients need drug maintenance treatment, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients and increases the economic burden of patients. Therefore, there is still a lack of effective treatment for adult ITP, especially for recurrent and refractory ITP patients, which is one of the problems that have attracted more attention and need to be solved urgently.

Obinutuzumab is the first personalized type Ⅱ glycosylation engineered CD20 monoclonal antibody. Studies have shown that compared with rituximab, obinutuzumab may improve its efficacy in lymphoma by increasing DCD and ADCC effects and reducing drug resistance by reducing CDC effects. In view of this, Obinutuzumab may have the same effect in the treatment of ITP, and may be more effective in the treatment of ITP, but there is also a risk of poor efficacy. At present, there is a lack of data on the efficacy and safety of Obinutuzumab in the treatment of ITP in China, especiallly pediatric ITP.

Therefore, the investigators designed this clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Obinutuzumab in the treatment of pediatric immune thrombocytopenia in patients who have not responded adequately or relapsed after first-line glucocorticoid treatment.
