We performed an integrated analysis of five clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of romiplostim self-administration. Data were analyzed from adults with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who received weekly romiplostim via self-administration or from an HCP. Patients who achieved a stable romiplostim dose for >= 3 weeks (HCP group >= 5 weeks to provide an appropriate index date to enable comparisons with the self-administration group) with platelet counts >= 50 x 10(9)/L were eligible. In the self-administration (n = 621) vs HCP (n = 133) groups, respectively, median age was 53 vs 58 years, median time since primary ITP diagnosis was 3.7 vs 2.5 years, and median baseline platelet count at ITP diagnosis was 19.0 vs 20.0 x 10(9)/L. In the self-administration and HCP-dosed groups, median romiplostim treatment duration was 89 vs 52 weeks and median total number of doses was 81 vs 50, respectively. In the self-administration and HCP groups, respectively: 95.0% and 100.0% of patients achieved >= 1 platelet response (defined as weekly platelet count >= 50 x 10(9)/L without rescue medication in previous 4 weeks); the median percentage of weeks with a response was 94.5% and 95.9%; and rescue medication was used in 36.7% and 39.8% of patients. Self-administration did not adversely affect safety; duration-adjusted rates for all treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and bleeding TEAEs were numerically lower with self-administration. Romiplostim self-administration appears effective and well tolerated in eligible patients with ITP. ER -
